A Python automation script (SMA) that converts downloaded video files to a standardized MP4 format with H264/AAC defaults and tags them with TMDB metadata. It integrates with media managers like Sonarr and Radarr and downloaders like NZBGet, SABnzbd, uTorrent, and qBittorrent via post-processing scripts.
Use cases
- automatically convert downloaded tv shows and movies to mp4
- tag video files with metadata from tmdb
- standardize my plex media library formats
- post-process downloads from sonarr and radarr
- convert mkv to mp4 with aac audio automatically
- run ffmpeg conversions after torrent downloads complete
- batch normalize video files for a uniform media library
When to choose
- you use Sonarr, Radarr, Sickbeard, or similar PVR tools and want automatic post-download conversion
- you want a uniform MP4 library with embedded metadata for Plex or similar servers
- you want official Docker images bundling the tool with Sonarr or Radarr
When to avoid
- you need real-time or on-demand transcoding rather than post-download batch conversion
- you prefer GUI-based media conversion tools
- your target containers or codecs fall outside what FFmpeg-based conversion supports
