MediaRenamer

If you’re a big fan of some series, you most likely keep all related media somewhere on your computer. Sure enough it can take some time to organize the database, especially if you also want to properly name each file. In this regard, MediaRenamer comes with the means to help you add the right name to TV series and movies.

It takes only a little while to go through the setup process to make the application work, but before you can take it for a spin, you need to make sure that .NET Framework is installed on the computer you want to use it on.

The application itself is pretty organized in terms of visuals, with a couple of tabs to differentiate TV series from movies, as well as one for general process options. The application can automatically scan a target directory for you, but there’s also an option to enable a desktop drop icon, so you can manually add one or more files to the list.

It doesn’t take a lot of time for the application to gather all items, showing them in a list along with season, episode for TV series, title, filename, and new name. However, you might want to pay a visit to the options menu, because renaming can’t be manually done by editing the corresponding table cell.

Output name can be automatically grabbed from one of several popular online movies and series databases. You’re free to modify conditions, and simply returning to the corresponding tab shows preview. Luckily, you’re prompted by the application to choose a name from the list grabbed from online sources, in case files on your computer are misspelled. Renaming is done instantly, at the press of a button.

All things considered, we come to the conclusion that MediaRenamer is a practical application you can use to organize your movie collection, and TV series. New names are cleverly grabbed from popular, trustworthy sources, but you can also intervene and define renaming terms yourself, in a process that lasts only a little while.
