Intelligent Media Manager & Metadata Tool
Automated media library management system that scans local media files, extracts metadata, and enriches content with posters, artwork, and detailed information from third-party APIs like TMDB, TVDB, and MusicBrainz.
Challenge
Managing large media libraries becomes overwhelming without proper organization, metadata, and artwork. Manually updating thousands of movies, TV shows, and music files with correct information and high-quality posters is time-consuming and error-prone.
Solution
Developed an intelligent media management system that automatically scans local media files, extracts existing metadata, identifies content using multiple third-party APIs, and enriches the library with accurate information, posters, and artwork.
Key Features
Technologies & Tools
Technical Implementation
Built with Node.js backend for file processing and API integrations, React frontend for the management dashboard, and TypeScript for type safety. Uses FFmpeg for media analysis, integrates with multiple third-party APIs (TMDB for movies, TVDB for TV shows, MusicBrainz for music), and implements efficient file system scanning with background processing queues.
Key Results
Impact & Outcomes
Transformed media library management from a manual, time-intensive process into an automated system that maintains organized, well-documented media collections with proper metadata and artwork, significantly improving media browsing and organization experience.
