The issue at hand is notably entirely unrelated to Apple Silicon / Intel / Rosetta / etc, but does effect MAS / non-MAS editions of FileBot ...

Re: I want my Filebot movie naming format to match that of my Radarr naming format

* each movie file in its ...

Re: I want my Filebot movie naming format to match that of my Radarr naming format

:arrow: If you want to rename files in-place, then you simply need to modify your custom format to create just a file name as opposed to a complete file path, like so:
