1920 x 1080. The recommended scale is 125%.

Which screen size / screen resolution / scale factor are you using?

150%. I can see everything if I change to 125% but that's not a good solution. The text is too small and it's hard on my eyes - even temporarily.

is there plenty of space above the menu

No, there isn't. What you see is the ...

1. Can't see New Preset.
When I click Edit Preset, the list is so long I can't see New Preset. I can click the tiny space between the end of the list and my toolbar [in the red rectangle], which opens the New Preset window but if there were more presets than are already present ...

The use case is as I mentioned in my comment: "I often add a folder of files but want to either remove items or exclude items from being renamed."

I know this is an old post but I would like to add my support for this request. I often add a folder of files but want to either remove items or exclude items from being renamed. The X button tooltip even says "Exclude selected items" so why can't we select more than one?

Just add {subt} at the end. It'll work for both video files and subtitles files because {subt} is only defined for subtitle files:
{n.removeAll(/[!?.]+$/).colon(', ')} ({y}) - {s00e00} - {t.removeAll(/[!?.]+$/).colon(', ').replacePart(' (Part $1)')}{subt}

I have two custom presets that I use - one for renaming video files and one for renaming subtitle files. Is it possible to have FB do both in a single preset?

This is the script for renaming the video files:
{n.removeAll(/[!?.]+$/).colon(', ')} ({y}) - {s00e00} - {t.removeAll(/[!?.]+$/).colon ...

Thanks for such a thorough answer and explanation.

Sorry if I'm missing something obvious but is there a way to stop FB opening multiple instances? I have a shortcut to FB in my SendTo menu. I send a folder to FB and perform my actions. But when I send another folder to FB and, instead of using the already open instance, it opens a new one.

Is it possible to rename video and subtitle files together but also add the language code to the subtitle files at the same time?
eg:
The Love Boat (1976) - S01E23 - Musical Cabins.eng.srt
The Love Boat (1976) - S01E23 - Musical Cabins.mp4

This is the naming format I currently use:

If you're using Plex, then you absolutely want to use the {plex.id} format for organising and naming files. {plex.id} covers everything and is battle-tested by users with large non-trivial libraries:
/path/to/Media/{ plex.id }

It always happens for some shows and never happens for other shows - as it should be - because TheTVDB considers the year part of the series name if the year is required to uniquely identify the series.


i.e. The Flash (2014) refers to the new series while The Flash refers to the original series ...

But, as I said, it only happens sometimes so I don't see how this can be the reason.

I have my episode naming format setup to insert the year but sometimes TVDB inserts it twice. Can anyone tell me why this happens?

In the FileBot folder there are two files:
filebot.exe
filebot.launcher.exe

They're both the same size so which one should I use? There is nothing about it in the 'manual'.

Why are there two different locations for downloading FB and they have different versions?

Here: https://www.filebot.net/#download
And here: https://www.filebot.net/download.html

I would have thought there was only a 64-bit version and wouldn't have found the second link (with 32-bit versions) if ...
