Introduction

Movie Renamer Ultimate is a desktop application that automatically renames your movie files and folders using metadata from The Movie Database (TMDB). It's designed for users of media servers like Kodi, Plex, and Jellyfin who need their files in a specific naming format.

The app parses your filenames, searches TMDB for the correct movie information, and renames the files to a clean Movie Name (Year) format.
