Description

Extract structured media information from video filenames. It helps media managers and automation tools infer title, season, episode, year, source, codec, and other details from common naming patterns.

This is a filename parser, not a video player. Guesses can be wrong, and filenames may reveal private viewing habits, so applications should allow correction and protect media-library metadata.
