Are there any media organizer applications I could use to get my library set up? I wouldn't mind saving some time renaming/refiling the several thousand files I have.

Roundboy posted:Well time to learn regex I know about the naming conventions, I guess I should be clearer. Right now I'm doing a lot of cutting and pasting to move each individual file from c:\media to c:\media\movies\movie\ and c:\media\tv shows\show xx\season xx\, and I was wondering if there was something similar to iTunes' library sorting feature for Plex. Just to save me a bunch of folder reorganizing.

. Anything with S##E## goes in TV. Anything #### goes to movies. I think plex assigns different naming conventions to the folder type specified.

Roundboy posted:There is no need to sort shows by season folder, and I *think* you can even get away with not putting them in show folders either. Well Plex is pretty clear about your media organization, and I did as you suggested last night and because all my media is in one folder that was no sorting by movie/tv show/etc. With quite a few files that makes it tedious to do all the scrolling via tablet or other mobile device. I know Plex doesn't create those folder structures or have an ability to help auto-sort files, hence my original question

Roundboy posted:Sorry, I reread your original question. And no, even Google is wishy washy on returning results to organize video media. I would maintain that any program would need metadata to move based on type and name, but to do that, it needs to correctly parse what the name/type is anyway... So by doing that plex is already there. Well, thanks for trying! teagone posted:I spent an hour or so organizing about 6TB of files before I loaded them into Plex libraries. Tedious as gently caress, but worth it in the end because I barely had any incorrect matches pulled from the database agents. I'm in the process of doing that right now
