9+ FileBot Post-Processing: Auto-Organize Movie Folders

Automated media organization simplifies the management of digital film collections. Software tools can rename, categorize, and move movie files into structured directories after they are downloaded or ripped. This typically involves analyzing file names and metadata to determine the correct title, year, and sometimes even genre, then placing the file in a corresponding folder structure.
