MovieScanner

It is safe to say that there is absolutely no scarcity of applications out there that can help you with cataloging and sorting your extensive collection of movies.

Sometimes, when you just need quick and relevant information about a handful of movies and compare their details head-to-head, full-features movie organizers are probably not the best choice.

Fortunately, you can quickly analyze your movie and video files and view detailed information about them under a single roof with the help of a lightweight, FFProbe-based application named MovieScanner.

You can get started with this utility right away since it does not require installation. Simply unzip its package and launch it via its executable file. You will quickly find that the MovieScanner comes with an unimpressive yet quite user-friendly interface.

From the app's main and only window, you can swiftly add individual movies or video files or, even quicker, you can add entire folders.

Once you movies or video files have been loaded, the app displays information like their names, resolutions, sizes, formats, audio tracks, embedded subtitles, file extensions, as well as audio and video codecs.

You are also provided with the possibility to refresh the list and to instantly remove all the files from the database thanks to designated buttons located in the upper part. It is worth mentioning that MovieScanner allows you to sort your movies by their name, extension, file size or directory path.

Before we conclude we would like to point out that it would have been great if the app would have also displayed the playback time and subtitle languages. Nevertheless, the lack of these small features is by no means a dealbreaker and, truth be told, the application has enough going for it as it stands.

If you are looking for a quick way to compare multiple movies or video files within a distraction free environment, then this lightweight, user-friendly app might just be what you are looking for.
