## Description

This project is a metadata plugin for Emby that functions as a specialized media scraper. Its primary purpose is to automatically fetch movie details and images from external databases to populate adult media libraries.

The tool identifies video content by extracting unique product identification codes from filenames, which it then uses to match media files to the correct database entries. This process automates the retrieval of detailed metadata and cover art, removing the need for manual data entry.

The plugin integrates into the media server's metadata provider pipeline, using asynchronous request queueing and regular expression-based code extraction to manage data retrieval.
