For people who have their movies in common folders:
Creates a new folder for your movies based on the Title from Moving Pictures, then moves the movie files into their respective folder, then updates the Moving Pictures Database with the new locations.
For people who already have their movies in individual folders:
In options you can change it so that it renames existing folders(instead of creating new ones like above) to the Title from Moving Pictures then updates the Moving Pictures Database with the new folder names.
You can also append the year to the folder in either of the options above.
The default replacements for incompatible characters are as follows:
* : = ;
* / = _
* \ = _
* ? = (blank)
* * = (blank)
* " = '' (two single quotes)
* < = (
* > = )
But you can change any of these in the options screen.
As of version 0.2 you can also enable the app to organize your movies into genres. It uses the first genre listed in Moving Pictures which is usually it's main genre and creates a subfolder for that genre inside your movie directory's parent directory.
Example(when rename existing is not checked, Setup Genres Enabled, Year in brackets enabled):
"C:\Movies\Anchorman.avi" would become "C:\Movies\Comedy\Anchorman; The Legend of Ron Burgundy [2004]\Anchorman.avi"
Example(when rename existing is checked, Setup Genres Enabled, Year in brackets enabled):
"C:\Movies\Anchorman\Anchorman.avi" would become "C:\Movies\Comedy\Anchorman; The Legend of Ron Burgundy [2004]\Anchorman.avi"
Remember, use at your own risk. It only updates the db if the move or rename was successful, so it shouldn't cause any problems.
Let me know how it works!
