$ tidyup

Python script usage

Import avutil:

import avutil

Search folder recursively to find videos:

folder = "StudyResource"
videos = avutil.Search_folder(folder)
# videos: map { designatio -> [ slice_paths ] }

Or you can specify the extension type of video

videos = avutil.Search_folder(folder, media_suffix={".mp4", ".wmv", ".avi", ".mkv"})

Pull video info from LIBRARY by default & download cover image

for designatio, file_paths in videos.items():
    video = avutil.Video(designatio, file_paths)

    # Pull video info
    video.pull_info()

    # Download cover image (as video.title + .jpg)
    video.download_cover()

It's okey using BUS

    # Pull video info
    video.pull_info(source=avutil.Bus)

Save video info as .nfo file

    # Save video info
    video.save_info()

Tidy up!

    # Tidy up (rename to video.designatio + video.actors)
    video.rename()

Proxy

Proxy is supported in avutil in two ways, you can either pass http-proxy in code

video.pull_info(http_proxy="http://127.0.0.1:1087")
video.download_cover(http_proxy="http://127.0.0.1:1087")

Or define a global bash variable (eg. http proxy):

$ export HTTP_PROXY="http://127.0.0.1:1087"
