Catalog for movies, tv shows, games and books.

Setup

1. Add the necessary folders in the settings. Hidden folders are supported. The password for viewing them can be changed in the settings.
2. Add posters or covers for your movies, TV shows, games, and books. To do this, add a file called "Cover" to the folder of the movie, game, TV tv shows or book. It is also recommended that you create a "CoverSmall", a smaller version so that the download is faster and the images are more enjoyable. Recommended sizes for "CoverSmall" posters or covers are as follows: for movies - 100x150, for new games - 100x133 and for old games - 100x100. You can automatically download covers in the program MediaElch.
3. Add, if necessary, a description for your movies, tv shows, games, and books. This can be done either manually by clicking on "+" and entering data from Wikipedia or automatically using the program MediaElch for movies and TV shows. For games and books you have to fill in manually, covers in good resolution can be downloaded using the Playnite program (will be in the program folder - "Playnite\library\files") or also manually. The description is stored in "NFO" files, movies and TV shows will be compatible with the "Kodi" shell.
4. Add the necessary buttons to the description as necessary. By default, the "View" button is created for movies, the "Install" button for games, and the "Open" button for books and the "Open Folder" button for all categories. Additionally, you can create your own buttons, for example, to open a folder, application or file. There is an example of creating a button in the "NFO" file; if necessary, they are duplicated (the "button" sub-item, in the "buttons" item).
5. Optionally, you can exchange the functionality of the right and left mouse buttons.

Features

By default, ISO, CUE, EXE files and folders are automatically added to the description. You can disable this in the settings. To automount ISO and CUE images, you can install the WinCDEmu program.

To rename automatically added buttons, you need to create a button yourself, for example - <button open="setup_dlc.exe">DLC</button>.

To hide a button, you can add a button named hidden, for example - <button open="setup2.exe">hidden</button>.

Download

Version for Windows 7, 8.1, 10.

[Feature request] Watch button per episode for TV Shows

Currently, TV shows with multiple video files are rendered the same as movies. It would be nice if multiple play buttons, 1x per episode, could be displayed below the description.

---

An alternative would be an option to add data fields, buttons, etc. dynamically, to different locations by adding them to the NFO file? e.g. <arbitraryField></arbitraryField>, which could then be used to add multiple play buttons for TV series. Kinda like how adding new arbitrary buttons currently work.

I would also use arbitrary fields for e.g. age rating, display PEGI logo image, support forum/page URLs (these don't seem to work with buttons), etc.

Accented characters in NFO cause it to show up as blank

I was categorizing a Mexican TV show called El Chapulín Colorado, and the presence of í in the NFO causes it to render blank.

[Feature request] Support for Calibre Libraries?
