Scraper is a tool to add movie into collection in bulk.
It scans a specified folder for movies, and download their information from TMDB automatically.
It then adds them to the collection. It is handy when there are, say, couple of hundreds of movies.
** It can take a while to complete the scraping. It will depend on number of movies and internet connection speed.
** It preferred that all movie files are in a folder. For the example below, we will select folder TestMC, which contains all the movies in different folders.
** If your movie folder consists of individual movie files, use file2folder tool to arrange them folder.
Launch Scraper click on the button
