Getting thumbnails for videos, and not using SS to do so.

Postby theplunger » Wed Oct 01, 2014 11:56 pm

I have a vast number of videos that I'm going to give to someone who has subsonic. He wants each video inside it's own folder, and cover art (thumbnail) named the same as the video. (Example: Toy Story.jpg) I've found a program to put the video in it's own folder with the same name; however, I'm having trouble finding a program that will automatically find cover art (thumbnail) from imdb or the like and save it with the same name as the video. Any ideas?

Maybe "tiny media manager"? Its main use is for kodi (ie. xbmc). It will add *.NFO files. Hope that helps.

Thank you for your help. Do you or any one else know another program similar? Tiny Media has made tons of mistakes scraping movies.
