hello, I am trying to rename some tv show episodes that I downloaded that are 1 file but multi episodes.
I used this {plex.tail} it managed to rename the episodes so plex can see then, but it also moved the file to a new subfolder in the tv show root folder. how do I tell filebot to not move the file after it renames it?
thanks,

Re: issue with renaming multi episode files for plex
you can try this if renaming file in place only
or
or with path
or
Code: Select all
{plex.tail.name}
Code: Select all
{n} - {s00e00} - {t}
Code: Select all
{f.parent + '/'}{plex.tail.name}
Code: Select all
{f.parent + '/'}{n} - {s00e00} - {t}
Re: issue with renaming multi episode files for plex
e.g.
If your custom format generates file names (as opposed to absolute or relative file paths) then FileBot will rename files in place.
Always remember that "move" and "rename" are the same operation for a computer. There is no such thing as "rename and then move" or "move and then rename" because the file path is changed at once with a single mv command.
