How can I organize movies, with IMDB import and fields for tags? [closed]

How can I organize movies on Windows?

Features wanted:

  • IMDB import
  • fields: director, genre, year, actors,...
  • covers
  • manage DVD / BD / ripped AVIs, MKV
  • moving/renaming files according fields

I want to achieve something like: M:\Movies\Director\year. title (genre).avi A syntax that lets me choose how I organize my files (like foobar2000 & mp3 files) according IMDB and personal tags would be great.

Auto fetch covers and listing of not-yet-ripped/yet-to-be-seen/wanted/loaned movies (txt, HTML or whatever) would be some nice features too.


I've not used it myself, but heard good things about Ant Movie Catalog (yes, it's a silly title). It seems to satisfy all your demands thought - free & open source.

The solution I use is put all the movie files into a single folder, and point Kodi (formely XBMC) to that folder. By default, Kodi does a pretty good job of getting movie meta-data just from having the title in the filename.
