Hey All,
After completing my very first HTPC build (thread here) I am ready to install XBMC as my front-end. However, I'm a little stuck on how to properly rename and organize all my movie files that are currently stored on my NAS.

I do NOT want to have to rename each file individually if I can avoid it so, after a web search, I've discovered two programs that claim to automagically rename and organize files for XBMC. So, my questions are as follows;

- Has anyone ever used TheRenamer or Ember Media Manager? If so, how well do they work?
- If you have a different method for properly renaming and organizing a substantial number of movie files (other than manual entry) what is it?
