This is a script I threw together for a friend of mine who suffered a catastrophic hardware failure and lost his media. While he had a 'backup', it was an old backup and so he lost all his carefully ascribed naming and folder structure. Some of his files will be picked up by XBMC, but too many wont be, and he needs a way to identify the files that havent been added to the library.
Loose Files scans your source folders and compares those files to the ones in your library, with the aim of identifying the files not picked up by XBMC. It provides you a list of those files on-screen. It can also save the list to disk or send it to you via email. The on-screen list gives you the option to play the file (to see what it is) or rename it. If you rename it the options change to allow you to rename it again, or move it to a new folder.
The script looks for 7 specific file types (avi, mkv, mpg, mpeg, mp4, wmv, mov), and you can either switch these file types off or add your own in the Settings. You can also set the script to ignore files below certain sizes.
