This is something I’m running into currently. I was curious what automatic methods there are for IDing files and bulk renaming, organizing, and updating meta data existed.

I have reasonable collection of movies and TV shows to archive.

    Filenames.

    If your files aren’t named properly, fix that first.

    If you have a bunch of random files and zero metadata, well, usually I just delete them. I could go through and identify each one manually, but it’s a lot less effort to just add things I want to watch to my download queue.
