Using the GUI, can i save the movie title to a csv file?

Post by DevXen »

I would like to make a list of my 3D movies, and add to it, as new ones are created.

I saw there is a script, similar to doing that using the CLI. but is there a way to add each movie to a new line
in a csv file by using the GUI?

And possibly improve upon it to create a whole database of my media. but that would be more later. haha.

Nope, that "export media library as CSV file" is pretty much that one filebot script, and there's no GUI equivalent for that.
:idea: Please read the FAQ and How to Request Help.

Oh. that sucks. I was thinking that would be a great way to keep a catalog of my videos. that would get updated everytime i used it rename/organize files. oh well. thank you anyways.

I'm now using the MediaIndex feature in a batch file to run the collection overnight (due to the time it takes for thousands of files) to create my list(s).

But my 'old' way was simply to run a simple DOS batch file & pipe it to a text file:
dir z:\movies /s /b > z:\movies\MovieCollection.txt

I then need to clean up the text manually, dropping empty folders, etc. - and DVD folders are a pain; but it works adequately, albeit VERY simply...
