However, as the primary topic is transferring from iTunes, that would be h264 mp4 anyway) I have not had time to examine h265, mkv container, or other options. (note, this relates to h264 mp4 video files.
Subler stuck tv#
I provide two examples, one TV show and one movie. I am happy to provide specifics regarding the tags (buy they are just the standards recognized by iTunes) and work with testing or whatever is needed. Can these few extra tags be added so that users with existing, large, curated, cleanly tagged libraries do not have to perform any additional steps for Infuse to properly ingest the media it could just work. Infuse can already read some metadata tags. All of that information is already in the standard metadata tags. Just like the other post, I do not want to resort to writing custom scripts to generate xml files, or rename all of my files to the Infuse naming format, or even group everything into folder structures.

Can Infuse recognize that?Īll of the TV shows are already marked with a series name, season number, and episode number.
Subler stuck movie#
So everything is already marked as Movie or TV Show or home movie etc. Like another post I saw, all of my media already has gone through Subler and had completely accurate metadata set in all of the standard tags. I would like to Not use the infuse function for auto-downloading any metadata and rather simply switch on the embedded metadata option and have it all work. I too am coming from an iTunes large library and looking to switch to infuse.Īll of my media already has all required sorting information in standard metadata tags.
If you rip your own discs, Subler (or a similar app) is a must-have.I have seen similar posts to this topic. Subler isn't fancy, but it works, it works well, and it's completely free. But it's really not much work (three or four clicks) to process each file individually-and that way, I can verify everything looks good before saving the changes. I've only tried this a couple of times-it worked once and failed once.
Subler can, in theory, process batches of files. Once that's done, I'm good to go-dragging the movie into the TV app (or iTunes) results in it being properly categorized, with its metadata intact: The final step-and one I've forgotten a couple of times-is to press Command-S to save the new metadata directly into the movie file. If, by chance, you'd rather use other artwork, you can select None, and then paste an image directly into the Artwork panel. Most of the time, that's the one I want, so I only need click "Set as artwork," and I'm (almost) done. Subler has searched its data sources, and returned a number of options for artwork, with one preselected.

(That window doesn't show all of the metadata found by Subler- this image shows the full data set.)Īfter confirming that Subler has found the right data, I click Add, and the metadata is added to the file, and Subler then presents the artwork panel: Because I've used a filename format (show name - season and episode) that Subler understands, it runs the search as soon as I click that icon: But that changes when I click the magnifying lens in the upper right corner of Subler's window. Other than the ripping tool, there's nothing there. I then drag and drop the ripped file onto Subler's dock icon, and it opens a window, showing all the metadata associated with the file here's how the window looked after I ripped the first episode of Sports Night: When I rip a TV series, I'll give the files a filename based on its title and (for TV series) season and episode, like Wings S01E01, or Sports Night S02E04. There are probably other apps out there that do this, but Subler works quite well for me, especially for TV shows. If I try to add the movie to the TV app (or iTunes, as on my iMac), it will require some hand editing to wind up in the right category, and it still won't have any show information.Įnter Subler, a free app to help you "tag" (add metadata to) movies and TV shows. Once ripped, the problem is that I have a video file that will play, but that has no useful information about what the video is-no metadata about the cast, production year, or (for TV series) season and episode. So I rip the disc- this way for Blu-Rays, or just via HandBrake for DVDs-to create my own digital copy. I tend to prefer physical media and sometimes-especially when buying an older TV series or classic movie-the disc won't include a digital copy. Somewhat regularly, I write about ripping DVDs and Blu-Rays.
