There are a bunch of these I see - MediaElch, Ember, TinyMM, MediaCompanion.
What I need to do -
- download metadata, artwork, nfo for large number of movies/tv shows
- should have ability to pick best match in case of conflict. some of these just give you a list and fail if there are multiple matches, some others e.g. the agent in Plex, will be smart about it, e.g. if you supply the year it will pick the relevant match
- rename files and move into folders (MediaCenterMaster is able to do this I think, but its not free)
- have ability to load external metadata agents (kodi compatible ones listed in forum here)
- have support for extrafanart
I'd also like to know:
- what is the best convention to use - e.g for poster, is it best to use <movie>.jpg, <movie>-poster.jpg?
- is it possible to have a single shared .actors folder instead of one for each movie?
Another option I thought of is to add all the folders in Kodi, then use ArtworkBeef (Artwork Downloader before) to get metadata, then use library export. Has anyone done this?
I will be using Jellyfin as my media server, and it fully supports Kodi nfo files, as does Emby.
