I guess you could contact Microsoft Store support with your paypal payment information. They might be able too lookup the account for that transaction. We have no access to that kind of information.

:arrow: [FAQ] How do I recover a lost license key?

:arrow: Note that the current universal license system did not yet exist in 2017. If you have made a purchase in 2017, then it must be a Microsoft Store or Mac App Store purchase. In that case, the Store will remember your purchase in your ...

:?: Can you share the MediaInfo table for one of these files you want to tag with CC2 ?


:idea: In general, you can do something like this to check the number of subtitle tracks and then add a CC2 / CC3 / CC4 / etc marker accordingly:
{
def cc = text.size()
if (cc >= 2) return " [CC$cc]"
}

I see. A 1920x1080 at 150% would be equivalent to 1280x720 and we don't really test and optimize for that screen size. I'll add that to our tests and see what we can do though.



UPDATE
FileBot r11026 and higher will allow you to use the mouse wheel to scroll off-screen menu items into view. We ...

I guess you could try using your mobile as hotspot or a different WiFi from a different place? Just for testing.

It’s almost certainly an issue between you and the target server (API server; different from the website server) so at this point you could only try lots of different tests to narrow ...

:?: What’s your screen resolution? I tried on Windows with 200% on a standard 4K monitor and was able to fit 20+ custom presets in addition to the built-in presets. Maybe you have a screen height that is less than 1080 pixels? Maybe a small laptop?

:idea: Built-in presets cannot be deleted as they ...

1.
Yep, looks like you have too many Presets for your screen.


:?: Which screen size / screen resolution / scale factor are you using? If you're using a high scale factor then you could temporarily use a smaller scale factor to allow for more things on screen at once.

:?: Is it a screen size ...

Getting the same issue for multiple different servers would definitely be a bit strange, unless it's something CloudFlare related that happens to be used by both TMDB and TVDB. In any case, Connection reset by peer means that the remote end of the network connection closed the connection ...

Here's what I get:



Which version of FileBot are you using? What does System Information say?

Which database are you using? Are you using a custom preset or a custom format that might explain the different behaviour you get?

Don't worry about it. You can safely ignore that message. It's just about Apple removing Rosetta 2 from a future versions of macOS. "a future release of macOS" notably refers to late 2027 at the earliest and not this year. See Q: When will FileBot publish arm64 binaries on the Mac App Store? for ...

Sounds like a generic network error...

Are you using a VPN?

Which database are you using? Have you tried using a different database?

What does the Error Log say?

:idea: The email address you have used to register here in the forums is not associated with a license purchase. If you don't know neither your email address nor your license number, then you will need to check with Paddle (our payment provider) to lookup your license number / license key via your ...

Please help me activate my FileBot license in Docker. Copying and pasting into the WebUI doesn't work. I really don't want to have to use the command-line for this.


:idea: The Paste License Key option requires access to your system clipboard. If the clipboard does not work, then you may need ...

:idea: Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is the official English movie name according to the database, so that's the value the {n} binding will give you.


:arrow: You could use Edit Name to manually rewrite the target file name if you don't like the name in the database.

:?: Did that ever work? Which version?


:idea: Open with FileBot works on Windows and Linux because the selected files are passed as argument array into the startup function. However, macOS doesn't pass selected files as argument array, so that's why it doesn't work when first launching FileBot ...

At a glance, probably not a Rosetta / Intel / ARM issue at all. Probably something else. Probably not something that an ARM version would fix. Though I cannot reproduce the issue on my M1 MacBook with macOS 26.5 here. Can you provide more information so we can investigate and fix this bug ...

The context menu uses your Presets . You can create / modify your Presets into the FileBot Desktop application to suit your needs. Specifically, you'll want to use a custom format and not {plex.id} which is the default format and adds {tmdb-12345} markers to the movie folder name.

After that you'll ...

Cheers! In the meanwhile, we have added a || true to that %post line to ensure a positive exit code even if CDS archive generation fails. The next public release / RPM is many months away though.

10.15.8 catalina, I don't want to upgrade. When Filebot went to its newest upgrade it just made it so it tries to boot up, bounces a few times and never opens. So I rolled back to an older version to get it back working and when I uninstalled I lost my license key.

FileBot 5.2.3 should restore ...

Q: When will FileBot publish arm64 binaries on the Mac App Store? explains the issue in detail. Please read that first and then point out specific aspects you would like to discuss or find dumb.

We are saying "Apple currently prevents us from uploading a correct version for future versions of ...

The RPM install and post process is typically running as root so writing to /usr/share/filebot is not usually a problem. At this point, the [RPM] Fedora package is used by dnf and zypper. We have never tested with rpm-ostree but could look into it that is what is commonly used nowadays.
