Here is my naming format. Just simple

Thanks Rednoah for posting the post conversation of a while ago. That helped me to restore my naming scheme. I will make a backup of it immediately

I think your right about that Did something (3rd party software?) delete your %APPDATA%/FileBot folder? You are probably right about that cause after the update i ran a cleanup software 3 days ago. But it was only to delete temporary files, not my appdata/Filebot folder. I'm not sure if that is the ...

After the last update of Filebot, i lost all my naming schemes. For music, i did have a saved copy so i was able to restore it, but for movies, i forgot to save a copy of it The only thing i know is that it was similar to that of Radarr. This is my naming scheme for Radarr: {Movie Title} ({Release Y...

The dark mode is nice, except when you want to highlight some text. It is difficult to see the highlighted text. If i said edit format and want to highlight some text in my naming script i can barely see the highlighted text. I choose flat dark. That is slightly better with highlighted text than Dar...

@ Rednoah I will the next time. I found it strange that i could see the correct media info Album Artist on MusicBrainz, but in Filebot it was empty. There was no info about the Album Artists. I thought I made a mistake so i load the album again in MusicBrainz and it showed me the Album Artists. i co...

@ rednoah
I don't use acoustic ID. It produces a lot of garbage sometimes.
I only use ID3 tags.

Are you working with a different version of Filebot, cause i didn't find the option to change to dark mode in my version of Filebot. I like the dark mode to be honest.

I don't know if I need to open a new topic but i asked this question before. In the naming Edit Format you can do a Binding as one of the options, but what are the bindings for? What can i do with Bindings? What also want to know is, if Filebot is selecting some metadata from MusicBrainz or does it ...

Since we have now learned "A, or B if A is undefined" we can now re-apply the same knowledge to your "I prefer the composer in the file name over the performer" use case and add this bit where your format generates the file Yes, it did that. I play with it a little bit to see wh...

I adjusted the script and i tested it with a Various Artists' album, Michael Jackson discography, U2 album, and Avicii. With this script below i get the best results. M:/TEST/ { media.'Album/Performer' ?: media.'Artists' }/ [{y}] - {album}/ {album} - { if (music.medium && music.mediumCount >...

Which property would you like to use? Albumartist is fine If i have an Album from Avicii it must show Avicci as the Albumartist or artist, even if there are other artist that sang different songs on the album. How i exactly want it you can find here under M:/TEST/Various Artists/[2023] - The Best G...

@ Rednoah I did a test with some more albums and as I stated I think that the script worked just fine. On some rare occasions, it creates separate folders for albums with multiple artists. I haven't found out what is the trigger for that. As I said a couple of weeks ago, I use a tool called Picard M...

I tested it again and i saw that i made a mistake. In both Windows and on my Synology NAS its creates for every artist a folder. The script must work in that way that it always start with the name of the Album I tested on Windows. Below you will see a screen image of the test https://imgur.com/n6lot...

I tried the script in my Windows version of Filebot and it worked. Thanks for your help However, i wanted to run the script on my Filebot package on my Synology NAS, but it produce a different result. If i run the same script on the NAS it creates for every artist that participates on the album a se...

Thanks! i will try it and let you know what the results are.

I'm not sure if i understand your first question but here under is the Media info of a file from the Various Artist Album # MediaInfoLib - v22.12 [General] Count : 337 StreamCount : 1 StreamKind : General StreamKind/String : General StreamKindID : 0 AudioCount : 1 Audio_Format_List : FLAC Audio_Form...

I'm sorry to bother you again but i ran into some problems using the above script. The script works very well but it is not that good for using it with a Various artist album. In the script after the CD1 or CD2 i start with the album name, then the track number, and at last the track. That gave prob...

Please report back if this is indeed what you were looking for, so that the next guy can copy your solution. I tested it and indeed it is what i was looking for. thanks for the help. Below you can see the result with Radarr Replicas (2018) Bluray-1080p AAC 5.1.mp4 with Filebot Bridesmaids (2011) Bl...

Thanks!

I'm gonna try it

My Radarr naming scheme is ok. I don't want to change that. I want Filebot to follow the same scheme as I showed in the first post. Filebot is doing a good job and it almost matches Radarr naming scheme, except for some differences. Here is how Radar named my movie : Bastille Day (2016) Bluray-1080p...

Normally Radarr does the movie handling for me, but sometimes I download movies myself and then I use Filebot for the correct naming format. However, I noticed that there is a difference in naming format coming from Filebot, and that is what I have in Radarr. I'm looking for some help to sync my Fil...

@Rednoah

It works now.
I use the latest format you posted and now it works as how i want it.



Thank you very much for your help and patience.

I'm so happy

I use the media composer format, but unfortunately it didn't give me the results that i want. What i want must look like this https://i.imgur.com/ZuSoqzf.png To be more specific. I don't want the composer in the name because it creates a long name. I just want the name of the artist in every track a...

:idea: You're using {n} which happens to default to {artist} which happens to default to {media.Performer} in this case. So you get Simon Climie (piano);Walt Richmond (piano);... because that's what the Performer property says. The generated file path is in line with your format. The result just ha...

It is because Picard messed up my library. 95% of my collection doesn't have that long name but only the normal artist name. I'm afraid that if i change my format to media.composer i will not always get the artist's name as the first. I want the artist's name to be the first, followed by the year an...
