I have hundreds/millions of videos for each channel I archive & need all the videos in each channel's folder moved into subfolders named after the resolution (frame height only: 360, 480, 720, 1080 etc) (ignore frame width) If I convert a 1920x1080 video down to 640x360 in the future, when I run the program again it should rescan and find the 640x360 resolution video in the 1080 folder and move it into the 360 folder. (many of my video files do NOT have meta-data/ID3/meta-tags that contain the frame height or resolution, so it has to be checked by a package like mediainfo or ffprobe) (1) My video file types are mp4, webm, mkv, avi, mpeg, flv. (2) All Videos have associated files with the same name, just a different extension. example of video file and associated files: Title - [login to view URL] Title - [login to view URL] Title - [login to view URL] Title - [login to view URL] Title - [login to view URL] (3) My root folder is Vids > Channel Name > subfolders/ or mp4,mkv,description,txt,html files BEFORE:(only ABC News folder expanded) - Vids - - ABC News - - - bla bla - [login to view URL] - - - bla bla - [login to view URL] - - - bla bla - [login to view URL] - - - bla bla - [login to view URL] - - Bloomberg - - PBS AFTER:(only ABC News > 480 folder expanded) - Vids - - ABC News - - - 480 - - - - bla bla - [login to view URL] - - - - bla bla - [login to view URL] - - - - bla bla - [login to view URL] - - - - bla bla - [login to view URL] - - - 1080 - - Bloomberg - - - 360 - - - 720 - - PBS - - - 480 - - - 720 These two main features below should be able to be turned on/off in [login to view URL] file to save time scanning.: #1 scan video files for resolution & only move videos to their resolution folder (if resolution has changed move the video into the correct resolution folder) #2 don't scan video files, just crawl file names & only move the associated files to the same folder the matching video file is in. Example: MoveVideosIntoFolders=1 MoveAssociatedFiles=1 (4) I only want some of the channel folders crawled, not all of them, so the program needs a [login to view URL] option like this: LookOnlyInTheseChannelFolders="ABC News","Bloomberg" (5) For scanning each video & finding the resolution to create the folder names i found some packages that can find frame height (mediainfo, ffprobe, etc) [login to view URL] [login to view URL] (6) Over time I convert videos to lower resolutions, so If a 1080 video is now 360 & still in the 1080 folder it needs to be moved to the correct 360 folder. And the associated files (.html .description .html .txt [login to view URL]) need to be moved along with it, if the "MoveAssociatedFiles=1" is true and turned on. (7) Make a setting in [login to view URL] to NOT remove videos from special subfolders that I create. But still move associated files into those folders if I put the video file in there. Example: DoNotMoveVideosOutOfFolders="Star", "Keep", "Special" - Vids - - ABC News - - - 480 - - - Star <- * - - Bloomberg - - - 360 - - - Keep <- * - - PBS - - - 360 - - - 480 - - - Special <- * * If i put a video in this special subfolder in ANY channel folder, & add the folder name to "DoNotMoveVideosOutOfFolders" in [login to view URL] then NEVER scan the video for resolution, NEVER move the video from here. If MoveAssociatedFiles=1 (true) the program should still scan this folder for file names, & if it finds associated files (description, txt, html, json) in other folders (channel name root, 360, 480, 1080, etc) it should move them INTO these special folders. Just remember not to move anything OUT. I have 6+ million files, I don't think a flatfile would work. You might have to use sqlite. Maybe scan the channel folder first, list file names in sqlite database, & sort/search/match associated files in the database then move them into the right folders maybe?

Hi, there. I am fully experienced in Desktop Application Development. Normal sorting and searching method will not work on such huge amount of files. Special and ultra-speed algorithm should be used. I can start right now and finish in short period of time. Please send me a message. Regards.
