Emby, Jellyfin, and Plex

Prepare local movies and series with NFO files, posters, and organized folders before adding them to a media server.

A lightweight, fast local media library

Browse local media without setting up Emby, Jellyfin, or Plex. Scan folders organized by MDC, MDCX, MDC-NG, TinyMediaManager, MoviePilot, VidHub, or other metadata tools. MDC reads existing NFO files and local artwork without creating cache files. The details and images shown depend on the files available in each folder.

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 a poster grid.

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.
