Plans to use additional extracted information like actors? #2

Open ShadowWalker99 opened 3 years ago

Do you plan to use the additional extracted information like actors?

Maybe all metadata could be placed in an nfo or json file?

pdbme commented 3 years ago

If there is a use case for that, why not.

You mean one json meta file per video? Or a centralized json file?

The json meta file would also be a good option in situations where you do not to change the original filename (aka postfix the pdb id at the end of the filename).

I think also in the filename could make sense. Some organizing tools use that info to extract more metadata from scrapers.

single video json file yes. It could also be used by organizers to fetch additional metadata.

Regarding the filename option: can you given an example which naming formats these tools can handle?

Let's say I have a video file named:

MyVideosite.21.03.25.Walk.the.Island.with.Marie.Reynolds.XXX.1080p.MP4-WRB.mp4

pdbMate can for example convert it to:

MyVideosite - Walk the Island with Marie Reynolds - 1080p - P0011234.mp4 {Site} - {Title} - {Quality} - {pdb-Id}.mp4

It would be possible to include two actor names in the renaming template.

MyVideosite - Walk the Island with Marie Reynolds - 1080p - Marie Reynolds - P0011234.mp4 {Site} - {Title} - {Quality} - {Actors} - {pdb-Id}.mp4

The format can be specified, but you can seperate by , and then put 1-2 actors indeed.

Is the pdb ID useful ?

pdbme commented 3 years ago

Okay multiple actors comma seperated.

The pdb Id is the key reference for pdbMate for files that have already been renamed so that duplicates can be identified when moving new video files to the target folder.

pdbMate works without a local database so it has to gather all information each times it runs. The pdb Id helps with easily referencing the video (that have already been parsed and renamed). It's like an imdb-id for adult video content, that's the long term goal at least.
