rename everything with one click. #29

This software is excellent but for someone like me with a large movie 
collection going through each one would take me a very long time. 

I propose the following solution.

1. Scan all movies and automatically pull in the media for the first option 
detected from IMDB.
2. User clicks rename all.
3. sqllitedb saves all transactions made so I can return to previous state.
3. report is emailed detailing all the renames.
4. User can now go back and fix any errors ( one by one. or complete rollback. )

Another nice feature would the possibility of creating folders for each movie 
as well to sort all the movies into their own directories.

Thanks for the awesome work.

Hi,

First of all, thanks, feedback it always really appreciate.

1° :
I'm not sure i understand what you asking for, actually in settings if "Auto 
select first movie in search result list" is selected in settings, it will 
"pull" information of the first result (default option), i don't see what your 
are looking for.

2°:
Well, it's something, that we want to do, but unfortunately, it's not a 
priority and it requires lot of work before got good results, but it will be 
added one day.

3° :
If you talk about a "undo" function, yes it's something that i will add too, 
but without database for many reasons. If one day i made a plugin system, i 
think i will add database (only sqlite)

4°: (your second 3)
With a "CLI" (this is plained), you will able to do that by yourself, but i'm 
not sure this feature it's really useful, i will think about this and maybe i 
will made it.

4°:
???, i don't understand what you looking for, you want to go back on what kind 
of error ? ,  maybe my English is to bad to understand ^^

5° : "Another nice feature would the possibility of creating folders for each 
movie as well to sort all the movies into their own directories."

You can do it with current version but it's not powerful (check settings/rename 
, "Create a directory" checkbox), in next version (2.0_Beta) you can rename 
directory like you want (same options than movie file name).
