|
||||||
|
- Remember which movies you have watched and where you are in a series
|
||||||
|
- Automatically generate nice file names and folder structures for your movies and series

### Organization
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The idea of ClipCorn is to have all movies in a single folder together with the ClipCorn executable and its database on an external hard drive.
|
||||||
|
You can use it in a different way, but for the best user experience it's recommended to follow the organization guide for which this tool was developed.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Every movie is named by a specific pattern. After you have added movies to your database you can rename the files to this pattern with the *"Check Database"* menu entry.
|
||||||
|
The movies are afterwards named like this:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

Stirb Langsam IV (Part 2).avi
|
||||||
|
Spongebob - Lost in Time.mpg
|
||||||
|
Terminator II - Tag der Abrechnung (Part 1).avi
|
||||||
|
X-Men I.avi
|
||||||
|
X-Men Origins - Wolverine.avi
|
||||||
|
X-Men III.avi
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|

~~~
|
||||||
|
*(the exact rules, encoded as an [EBNF](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_Backus%E2%80%93Naur_Form) can be found under the help menu)*
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Series have an unique folder per series (with the series name), after that a folder for each season and then files with the file name pattern `SxxExx - %name%`. For example: `S01E07 - You Win or You Die.avi`
|
||||||
|
You can create the folder structure for series by right clicking on a series and selecting *"Create folder structure"*
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Because series tend to become quite large you can also put them on their own external drive.
|
||||||
|
A special [format syntax](https://github.com/Mikescher/jClipCorn/wiki/Relative-paths) guarantees that the paths to these series stay valid.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### First start
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
First copy the executable (either jClipCorn.jar or jClipCorn.exe) into the folder where you have your movies, then execute it (it needs read and write permissions).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
On the first start it should create a folder "*ClipCornDB*" where the database is stored.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
![main-empty-metal](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wiki/Mikescher/jClipCorn/FILES/main-empty-metal.png)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can see this in the log view (icon in the bottom status bar, to the right of the progress bar).
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
At first you should look into the settings and eventually change a few things, important are:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- UI Language
|
||||||
|
- Look'n'Feel (It's recommended to either use *Windows* or *Metal*)
|
||||||
|
- VLC Path (path to *vlc.exe*, for playing. You can also use another player - but it works best with the [VLC player](http://www.videolan.org/vlc/))
|
||||||
|
- The backup settings (I recommend to **enable** automatic backups *(like every 7 days or so)*)
|
||||||
|
- Automatic relative paths (this should really stay active - otherwise paths will be absolute and everything can go havoc if ClipCorn runs on an external drive)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After that you can start adding your movies and series.
