Thanks a lot @TheDreadPirate for clarifying. I will make a test run with the Tiny Media Manager to get an idea of how much effort this is going to be. My gut feeling is I might be faster with a little script and some RegExes.
Not to complain, just to share a thought with the community: I fully understand that JF needs a specific data structure for metadata as a standardized base for all its functionality. However, the reality out there is diverse, so at the same time, it should also be able to deal with this diversity. Wouldn't it be nice to have a kind of configurable mapper? I.e. it could be a configurable plugin for RegEx based mapping or a scripting interface (i.e. LUA) for more complex operations.
