Mounted cloud drives
Read media through a mounted drive and keep metadata and artwork on local storage.
A lightweight, fast local media library
Browse media before setting up Emby, Jellyfin, or Plex. MDC reads movie metadata from existing NFO files and displays the matching local artwork, without creating cache files.
Scan existing NFO files
Open folders organized by MDC or other scraping tools; no full rescrape is needed.
List and poster views
Check metadata in a sortable list or browse covers in a poster wall.
Search and filter
Find media by title, actor, series, studio, genre, or tag.
Correct matches
Edit metadata, crop covers, or rescrape with a custom search name.
Everything needed to keep a large media library organized
Personal cloud profile management
Manage scraping preferences in the cloud and sync them across clients for a consistent setup on every device.
Multi-platform clients
Run MDC on Windows, macOS, or Docker depending on how your media library is hosted.
Filename extraction preview
Test how MDC reads a filename before scraping and correct files that would match the wrong title.
Supports up to 30+ data sources
Connect to more than 30 sources, including 17 general-purpose sources such as TMDB and FANZA/DMM, with configurable lookup order and custom URL scraping.
Update existing metadata
Refresh existing metadata files and artwork based on their age, or download only missing images.
Media-server ready output
Prepare organized folders and metadata that can be imported cleanly into Emby, Jellyfin, Plex, and more.
Advanced controls documented for larger libraries
Move or link media file
Choose move, symlink, hardlink, or STRM generation depending on whether your media lives on local disks, NAS, or mounted cloud drives.
Background hosting and automation
Use single-file processing, cloud profile selection, local config selection, and scheduled background directory monitoring.
OpenAI translation support
Use compatible OpenAI-style endpoints and models as a translation engine in cloud configuration.
Naming and metadata rules
Customize folder paths, output filenames, metadata titles, resolution variables, tags, watermarks, and field mapping.
More control over every library run
Retry only failed files
Select files from the failure list, review their matches, and process them again without repeating the whole run.
Fill in actor portraits
Connect Emby or Jellyfin and fill in missing actor portraits using the server API.
Keep videos and subtitles together
Move matching subtitles beside each video, mark them in the NFO file, and optionally mark the cover.
Fill gaps from multiple sources
When one site lacks actors or a synopsis, check other sources in order to complete the metadata.
Use profiles across devices
Sync multiple cloud profiles to clients for different media types; one account supports up to three devices.
Scrape in place
Write NFO files and artwork beside the original video, with optional renaming, or update existing metadata.
