[Presets] Use Original Files Selection / Do Select Files

Post by njf »

I have tried to find the answers but not managed to so far.

1. In the Rename righthand window, some file names have a green blob in front of the new name but some don't. What does the green circle represent?

2. In the Preset Editor, what is the difference between Do Select Files and Use Original Files Selection?

If they are answered elsewhere, please just point me there.

1.
Image means that the original path is exactly the same as the destination path, so FileBot won't be doing anything for this file.


2.
Use Original Files Selection means that it'll use whatever you have manually loaded into the Original Files list.

Do Select Files allows you have FileBot automatically select files for you when clicking on a Preset. You can do things such as "Select all files from this folder that are longer than 60 minutes and process them with TheMovieDB".

It'll make sense if you go through the Presets examples and then play with it yourself for a few minutes. ;)
