Re: Need help on a very simple formatting request
e.g.
Replace : colon with - dash
Alternatively, you could just use the {plex} format which automatically takes care of these things:
Format: Select all
{ n.replace(':':' -', '?':'_') }
- { s00e00 } -
{ t.replace(':':' -', '?':'_') }


Format: Select all
{ plex.name }

How do I use a HTTP proxy?
Is it possible to configure the Filebot GUI on MacOS (not the Mac App Store version) to use a proxy? I have tried 3 or 4 different ways to do this mentioned in other forum posts but nothing is working. :?: What have you tried so far? Does FileBot not inherit your system proxy settings?

Re: FB not remembering last path that was opened
I mean you can use the zenity command independently of FileBot to see what works and what doesn’t. We could change how FileBot calls zenity if we knew what zenity commands work correctly on your device. Presumably different variations of the --filename option will work better. Maybe your version of z ...

Re: export, edit and import preset
If you're using the GUI and want to import / export Presets then you can do that via Backup and Restore Settings.
If you're using the CLI then everything is in the command-line call that you can just copy & paste from one machine to another.
