Re: Fetch newly added Episode information immediately (i.e. clear cache)

I remember we were highly discouraged from clearing cache. Does that cost real money when users are constantly clearing cache (i.e. pulling data via APIs = abusing usage quotas)?

Fetch newly added Episode information immediately (i.e. clear cache)

I remember there was a way to force FB to find a new entry in TMDB via a link... I think. I forgot to take notes :( example... If I find that a new release can't be renamed because it's not in TMDB yet, and go to TMDB to add the episode, can I rename it immediately, or do I have to wait until the ca...

Re: What does "ut_label=%L" "ut_state=%S" "ut_title=%N" "ut_kind=%K" "ut_file=%F" "ut_dir=%D" mean?

@rednoah Hello Does FileBot need/use/expect the strings as you have written them: ut_label , ut_title , etc. ? Can that nomenclature be changed or will it break FileBot's ability to understand shell scripts. qBittorrent v4 has changed their parameter names and I see no correlation or complete list i...

OK, looks like we've moved on... and are no longer using ~emby.id.derive for Plex. :lol: Plex has its own binding now ~plex.id.derive 8-) The only thing is that the Plex binding doesn't include the Year like the Emby binding does. And that was the reason I moved to the Emby binding under your direct...

Re: Make the file extension in Original Files visible at all times

Thanks for the response! Considering your input... the change wouldn't have to be implemented exactly the way I suggested. Perhaps object type could be first instead of second to object ? This way the yellow highlighted object type would always be visible by virtue of being to the left side - two pa...

Hi Red, It would be very nice if the Rename panel's two panes, "Original Files" and "New Names", each had a sticky column to the far right for the object's extension. May we have two columns, one for the Name and one for the extension for both the Original and New names instead o...

Thanks. Sorry I should have written “multiple part” and still it’s hard to disambiguate.

FileBot is creating dupes for multipart episodes named like so.
