Calibre-like for video?
Anyone know of a Calibre-like program that will maintain a video library? Preferably one that scrapes IMDB or something similar?

I used to use http://www.collectorz.com/movie/
not quite the same as calibre, it doesn't store the video files themselves, only keeps a database of what you have. in each record you can specify the location. |

"Plex" of plexapp.com comes to mind. It at least will scrape metadata and allow you to assign meta-data. Otherwise, there is (shudder) iTunes.
I must admit, having Calibre handle videos would be a cool "next step," as many of us upgrade our eReaders to Tablets! - Jim |

I ended up going with XBMC. It doesn't organize files but does scrape for metadata and has a decent search function.

I use iTunes for both music and video. Free, works well, and has good search and organisational capabilities.
