Re: How do I delete the recent formats list?

1. Do you by any chance switch between formats because there are (A) some movies where the English title is the original title and so you want Name (Year) for these files, and (B) movies where the English name is a translation and so you want English Name (Original Name) (Year) for those files? No, ...

Tip 1 : If you have already loaded and matched a file, then you'll want to use Double-Click <New Names item> ➔ Edit Format to open the Format Editor with that specific pair of File / Movie information. That will allow you to quickly check different formats for that specific Spanish movie right ther...

Re: How do I delete the recent formats list?

YouTube usually works best. But you can also share via Google Drive or One Drive if that's easier for you. If the use case makes sense, then we'll see about implementing a good solution.

Re: How do I delete the recent formats list?

You cannot. If you add new ones then previous ones will be removed.

Re: Renaming all folder/files but {vf} syntax error

Each {...} is a variable, so you would use it like this if you want separate SD / HD folders:
