Re: Use Alternate Order From TVDB
Keep in mind that debugging a HTTPS request is very different from debugging a HTTP request. The latter just works. The former requires your proxy to effectively perform a man-in-the-middle attack to compromise the secure connection. I'm fairly sure that Charles can do that. It'll require additional ...

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

I mean you can use the zenity command independently of FileBot to see what works and what doesn’t.

Maybe your version of z ...
