If you are constantly fighting with your video metadata, MetaX is exactly what you need. Instead of screwing around with the very limited “Get Info” pane of iTunes, you have a full fledged application dedicated to getting your metadata perfect. Now, let’s break down why MetaX is such a useful tool for organizing your video.
Granular Control
This application lets you control everything. When you first open a video file in the interface, it asks you if it is a movie, television show, or a music video. From there, you can change every aspect of the metadata you’d ever imagine. The rating, date of release, purchase date, description, and listed encoding tool are just a few of the customizations available. If you’re anal retentive about keeping your videos organized, this application will blow your mind.
Batch Editing
When you need to process an entire season of a television show, MetaX will save your life. If not your actual life, then at least a large chunk of your time. You can write out the settings in a batch, and knock out those twenty two episodes of your favorite show. Also, this is a great way of editing the podcasting metadata of your favorite podcasts all at once. Keeping everything in order has never been easier.
Metadata Importing
Don’t feel like entering all of this text manually? Well, you are in luck, my friend. MetaX has built-in support for pulling metadata from IMDb and TagChimp. All you have to do is search for your title, and then select the most accurate result. Bam! All of your work is done for you.
In sum, this is the fastest and easiest way to keep track of your videos, and it makes everything display very nicely in iTunes. Best of all, it is completely free! Go check it out.
