Cinematic

πŸŽ₯ A gorgeous Desktop UI for your digital movie collection, works on Mac, Windows, and Linux!

Have a digital movie collection?

Cinematic is a desktop app to beautifully organize and automatically retrieve information about your digital movie collection, so you can spend less time searching and more time watching.

Cinematic Light UI

Point Cinematic to the movie folder on your computer to scan and retrieve movie posters, ratings, trailers and much more about any movie files found. Organize your movies by genre and sort by popularity, release date, runtime, or randomize things.

Cinematic prefers filenames like Independence Day [1996].mp4 but will happily parse torrent-style Movies.That.Look.Like.This.2015.HDRip.XviD.XXX-XXX.AVI.
