This feature is simpler to how kodi does meta data, essential exporting and importing the metadata and images from the folder the scene belongs to
https://kodi.wiki/view/Naming_video_files/Movies

This isnt a replacement but and alternative option of import/export
Its alot easier for users todo since the current system is complicated, with mapping.json
and all the scene json named with hash codes

How to name Files and Images

Folder ABC
|     ABC.mp4
|     ABC.json
|     Thumb.jpg
|     Fanart_01.jpg
|     Fanart_02.jpg
  • If Thumb.jpg exist import as thumbnail
  • If Fanart import as gallery
  • ABC.json fields data in the current metadata

That's if you have a different folder for every scene.
What happens when you have a single folder with many scenes inside?

How kodi does it first matches thing that have the video name as prefix
<video_name>.json
<video_name>_Thumb.jpg
<video_name>_Fanart_02.jpg
etc

also there are a lot of tool that support this method, though they also rely on nfo's files

That one would be awesome. It also should write the nfo file for Kodi!
