Many thanks!

So I have added these lines to those files:
filebot.launcher.l4j.ini
filebot.l4j.ini

Is that correct? It seems to work.

How can one avoid the update message to be shown on each start of filebot:

Presumably, most users would just move the window to the corner of the screen, mostly off screen, and then not give it a second though. I would not think so, I do not know any other program with such a behaviour. It just is senseless to each time move a window again and again, it is absolutely need...

I do not understand at all why there is no option to deactivate that "Always-on-Top behaviour", what is the sense for that? It is ridiculous to be bothered by such behaviour, a window on top all the time you do not want.

Why at all is there such annoying window (one cannot avoid showing up), what sense does it make?

How can I make this window disappear:


It is extremely annoying, one cannot close / hide it, it always is in front during the processing.

Alright, thank you very much!

I'd start by narrowing down the issue. Try the MSI package if you're using the portable or vice versa.

Well, I do not want to install programs I do not need / use.

These two files are not changed when I change the size of FileBot and restart ist:
filebot.l4j.ini
filebot.launcher.l4j.ini

Obviously it will not on my system. So how could I make FileBot do it?

How can I open FileBot with the same size of the window (I left it the last time or with a predefined value / the biggest size / full monitor) each time?

Alright, many thanks.

Why not have an option for everything you can think of? Well, yes, sounds good, might get a very comprehensive program then. As for customizing window priority? Well, well, if there were programs showing a window on top over all of the other windows all the time without the option to close it / hid...

I see, the progress dialog. Users have reported that this dialog sometimes appears hidden behind other windows, so I've made it always-on-top to make sure it's always visible when it pops up. Loosely related to the task bar issue actually. You can't hide it, that's a con. But it's never hidden, so ...

I Don't Know. Perhaps. Popup windows are displayed on top of the task bar on my machine. Newer revisions try to detect the location of the task bar and display the popup outside the task bar bounds. OK, NIS. Actually I should have the newest revision. VS. IDK what "processing window" refers to. A s...

Sorry, what does IDK mean? So a bug existing for years on my system already? Effecting FileBot only? Cannot remember to have seen that using other programs. Many thanks for trying fo find a workaround! And, by the way, I am just remembering: the FileBot processing window (e.g. when processing a rena...

Alright, thank you very much!

How could FileBot always show the entire menu instead a part of it(?):

When I click it (after having added the folder(s) this is shown (the circle goes on rotating, nothing more happens for a long time): https://i.imgur.com/dSvmUdK.png And suddenly there are...ah, now I see, one does not have to drag and drop a folder to FileBot, it does it automatically when clicking ...

Thank you very much for both variations. Sorry, I didn't make it. The result:


The folders:


And:


What is wrong?

Alright, could you make one for me to exclude sfv files and rar files?

Well, FileBot has more than one user, so perhaps some features make more sense for some users, and less so for others. Well, well, that is why a program offers different features, so for most ones then there are needful features available. A simple filter, a basic option, easily could manage that. ...

But what sense does that make? It would be so easy to just add a simple filter option. The workaround is to only drop your video files into FileBot as discussed above It sounds as if that absolutely would not make any sense, manually remove the sfv files (and otheres) or the ones one want to rename?...

How could one avoid this behaviour?

OK, I am not sure how this might help, here it is:

May be you want this also:

Sorry, screenshots of what?

Most likely, all the non-media files will be ignored and not matched to anything.

I am not quite sure to understand correctly. The sfv files are not ignored, they are processed. Rar files as well. And many more which should not be processed.
