## What it is
A metadata provider plugin for Jellyfin and Emby media servers that fetches movie and actor metadata from various internet providers via the MetaTube backend server. It supports full metadata scraping, trailer streaming, face-detection-based image cropping, and automatic metadata translation.

## Use cases
- scrape movie metadata into jellyfin
- automatically fetch actor images in emby
- translate movie metadata to my language
- crop movie cover images centered on faces
- add trailers to jellyfin without downloading them
- organize movie library metadata automatically

## When to choose
- you use Plex or another media server without MetaTube support
- you only need metadata for TV shows or music rather than movies
- you cannot deploy or reach the required metatube-server backend
