Anyone know of a good movie organizer?

[Skyler0]

Greetings,

I'm curious to know if there is any kind of application that will organize movies (avi/xvid/mpeg etc).

What I would like is to to be able to search/grab data from IMDB or other database, and then be able to organize the actual directories structure and file name based on that. (for example "/Videos/[Genre]/Name [Year].avi" or something similar.

Something that also contained a library of videos with the same type of database grab would be sufficient as well, although not as ideal as the above.

I'm thinking something similar to how musicbrainz is, only for movies.

Thanks,
-Sky

I really like Miro for videos.

I really like Miro for videos.

That looks like a very interesting piece of software I think I'm going to install it and give it a whirl.

I just looked at GCStar and Miro. I'm digging Miro.

I looked a Miro, but I didn't really see any kind of organization thing to the movies. They were just listed. :/. I also tried GCStar, but it kept freezing when I tried to import a folder.

I found some other canditates I'm going to check out though:

Data Crow
Griffith
CeeMedia Movie Catalogue
MeD's Movie Manager
MovieFly

On my system, it crashes fluxbox. I haven't tried it in gnome as of yet, but unless it works in fluxbox, it doesn't work for me.

It's a windows app but look into ember media manager. I run a virtual machine purely for that app, it's works really really good (it's designed to use along with xbmc)

hi there, try using Data Crow from sourceforge. I used it when I was using windows, but am now a newbie on linux, and as such haven't quite figured out how to install it on linux. It lets you create a data base of vitually anything you want. Give it a try, it's easy to use, the result is great, and you can export, back up etc. Good luck,

allo Skyler0,

have you try Griffith,

"Griffith is a media collection manager application. Adding items to the collection is as quick and easy as typing the film title and selecting a supported source. Griffith will then try to fetch all the related information from the Web."
