Zeeb Movie Renamer

Batch movie file renamer with IMDB integration. Automatically parses filenames, searches IMDB, and renames files with customizable format patterns.

A complete rewrite of the original Zeeb (Adobe Flex, v3.x) as a modern Electron + React desktop application.

Download

Get the latest release from the Releases page:

• Windows: download the .exe installer (no admin rights needed)
• macOS: download the .dmg disk image then xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/Zeeb Movie Renamer.app" and run it.
• Linux: download the .AppImage, then chmod +x Zeeb-Movie-Renamer-*.AppImage and run it

No Node.js or other runtime is required — the installer is self-contained.

Notes:

• The app is not code-signed. On Windows, click "More info" → "Run anyway" on the SmartScreen prompt, or right click in Explorer, choose Properties and check Unblock. On macOS, run the xttr command above as I don't have a paid Apple developer account currently.
• On Linux, if the AppImage fails to launch with a FUSE error, install libfuse2 (Ubuntu/Debian: sudo apt install libfuse2).

• Dual-renamer workflow with interleaved file processing
• IMDB integration via embedded webview
• TMDB poster browsing and saving
