Get Online Video Metadata

This dialog lets you search popular movie and TV show web sites such as themoviedb.org IMDb and TheTVDB for metadata relating to movies and TV shows that you may have. <!–kadov_tagspaces–>&nbsp;<!–kadov_tagspaces–>Mezzmo will search these sites based on the search term you use and display the results for you to choose your preferred video metadata. <!–kadov_tagspaces–>&nbsp;<!–kadov_tagspaces–></p>
