Search option in "Episodes"?

Post by Biff »

Is there a way to search in "Episodes"?

And is there a way to keep one or more items in Filebot without renaming them? E.g., you have 30 renamings being correct and 5 being wrong, can you keep these 5 items in the list without renaming them (and removing them from the list and add again before renaming the correct items)?

Can you add buttons to Filebot, e.g. for renaming with "TheTVDB"?

1.
"Episodes" only does "Search & Fetch Episode List" so you need to be more precise. If you mean you want to filter then it can only filter by Season. If you want to "Search" in the names then just copy & paste everything into notepad.

2.
Press DELETE to delete a row from both sides. Press ALT+DELETE to delete only the currently selected element.

3.
No. That would be ugly.

Many thanks, rednoah.

1. Sorry for being so impricise, great you assume correctely, what I mean. OK, I will use notepad, searching could be much more inconvenient.

2. So you always have to delete and add the incorrectly items.

3. So, I understand, no ugly buttons.

Many thanks again.

If you deal with a large library it's a bad idea to rename in place anyway. Just make a new folder and have filebot move/rename there into the proper structure. Everything in the new structure is done, so in the end the old structure will only contain badly named files.
