HomeCinema is a "media cataloguing software".
Organize your collection of Movies and TV shows with HomeCinema.
It is like a book catalogue, except it's for Movies and Series located in your Local Drive.
Ease the pain of browsing through many folders and finding out which movie is which.

1. Press CTRL + S or click on [Settings] button to Open Settings UI.
2. Go to File Tab.

3. Under Media Locations, click on [Add] button and a new Window will pop-up
   

4. Click [Browse] button and navigate to the directory where your media files are located.
5. Select the media type from the Selection Box with label Type.
6. Select media source from the Selection Box with label Source.
7. Finally, click the [OK] button.

• If its your first-time use, it will load all media files from the location selected.
• If you add media locations from the Settings form, an App restart is required to take effect.

IMPORTANT NOTE: First-time loading of App takes a while to finish. Even longer if you have a huge collection of media files.

• The directory must be the top-level base folder.
• A sample directory structure:

D:\TV Series\Title of Series\Episode 1.mp4

• With this structure, D:\TV Series is your base folder, and is the path you need to select.
