Anyone here ever tried keeping a Markdown note next to their movie files? I’m talking about something like having a MovieName (Year).mkv and a MovieName (Year).md living in the same folder.

I was thinking it could be a nice way to keep personal notes about the movie, quick thoughts after watching, trivia, or even just a record of when and which version I watched. Since Markdown is plain text, it feels future-proof and easy to edit from anywhere.

Just looking to see how other people handle notes or metadata outside of the usual movie database apps.

I've been using tiny media manager for this. It supports pulling information from a bunch of different providers. (there is a subscription) but for most basic use cases the free version is perfectly fine.

Tmm won't do markdown, but it will do nfo files.
