// What It Does

Fill the metadata gaps.

If you have a library of videos without metadata — no titles, no dates, no tags — MetaFetch fixes that. It scans your folders, identifies videos missing a .info.json file, and fetches the data automatically.

📁

Folder Scanner

Point MetaFetch at one or more folders and it scans every .mp4 file, skipping anything that already has metadata.

⚡

Smart Pre-scan

Before fetching, MetaFetch shows you exactly what it found — how many files need metadata, estimated time, and a breakdown by platform.

⏱

Configurable Delay

Set the request delay from Fast (1s) to Slow (5s) to avoid rate limiting when fetching large libraries.

📄

Saves .info.json

Metadata is saved as a standard yt-dlp .info.json file alongside each video — compatible with Stash and other media managers.
