About

Nielsen helps you chown, chmod, rename, and organize TV show files from the command line.

A typical filename might be something like: The.Glades.S02E01.Family.Matters.HDTV.XviD-FQM.avi, but a less annoying filename would be The Glades -02.01- Family Matters.avi.

Nielsen endeavors to automatically handle these types of renaming operations, as well as change the owner, group, and file permissions to user specified values (which may be more useful for media streaming scenarios), and move the files into a more hierarchical folder structure that keeps your media directories tidy.
