### Movie Files Not in Folders ### ### Movie Files Not in Folders ###
* Currently, Radarr requires that each movie be in a folder. The format should be something like `./Movie Title (Year)/` to facilitate correct identification during import. Further, having the quality in the filename is also useful like `Movie Title (Year) [Quality-Resolution].ext` so that during import the correct quality will be matched. A useful tool for making these changes to your collection is [filebot](http://www.filebot.net/#download) which has paid version in both the Apple and Windows stores, but can be found for free on their [SourceForge](https://sourceforge.net/projects/filebot/files/latest/download) site. It has both a GUI and CLI, so you can use whatever you're comfortable with. * Currently, Radarr requires that each movie be in a folder.

### Movie Folders Named Incorrectly ### ### Movie Folders Named Incorrectly ###
* Even if your movies are in folders already, the folders may not be named correctly. The folder name should be `Movie (Year)`, having the title and year in the folder's name is critical right now. * Even if your movies are in folders already, the folders may not be named correctly.

* Examples that will work well: `/mnt/Movies/A Clockwork Orange (1971)/A Clockwork Orange (1971) [Bluray-1080p].mkv` or `/mnt/Kid Movies/Frozen (2013)/Frozen (2013) [Bluray-1080p].mkv`
