I'm still fairly new to the Mystic Ecosystem but I do remember seeing a tool in mutil that offers the ability to clean up file bases and you can choose how it handles that in the ini file.  I do know you can put the files in the folders and do a mass upload but not sure how it would handle the descriptions.  Might be a little help.  There are some guides from the Mystic Guy on your tube and I do remember one of the videos talking about this just not which one.  

Wish I could help more
