Practical feature: Automated Filename Metadata Extractor & Organizer

Description: A small tool/script that parses media filenames like "A.Silent.Voice.-720p-.Hindi.Vegamovies.NL.mkv", extracts useful metadata (title, resolution, language, release group/site, container), normalizes it, and moves/renames the file into a consistent library structure while saving metadata (JSON sidecar).

The story follows Shoya Ishida, a young man haunted by his past as a schoolyard bully. His target was Shoko Nishimiya, a deaf girl whose only "crime" was her desire to connect. The brilliance of the narrative lies in its refusal to offer Shoya an easy way out. By the time he reaches high school, the roles have reversed; he is the social pariah, physically and metaphorically "crossing out" the faces of everyone around him. This visual device perfectly captures the isolation of a person who believes they no longer deserve to participate in the world. Communication Beyond Sound

Central to the film is the theme of "voice." For Shoko, her "silent voice" is often misinterpreted or ignored by those around her, leading her to internalize the belief that she is a burden. For Shoya, his voice is silenced by his own self-loathing; he literally "crosses out" the faces of others in his mind, unable to look them in the eye or engage with the world. Their eventual reunion is not a simple fix, but a series of painful, awkward attempts to bridge the gap between their isolated worlds.
