Edit title & re-search for wrong, 'files matching' dialog...

Post by topbanana »

Can we have the ability to edit the title of the file it's searching for when:

A) It incorrectly IDs the film as the infamous "Download (2013)" movie that is seems to come up with very often!

B) If can't positively ID it and pops up with the 'Movies matching _______' dialog box giving a list probable choices... but sometime they're all wrong.

This often happens when there's a typo or some other random words in the original filename that confuses the search engine.


So for 'A' if we could right-click on individual files (or group?) and select "Edit & Search Again", that could pop up a dialog, very much like the existing "Unable to identify the following files:" dialog that allows you to edit the filename but to also select the same or different DB site to search again.

For 'B' a button on the 'Movies matching _______' dialog box to do the same... So next to the "Select" and "Ignore" buttons there already.

This should make fixing incorrect or non identified movies/shows something we can do on the fly without having to go out and edit the filename in explorer and dragging & dropping it back in again. Especially annoying if you have a lot of movies you're trying to id at once.

A)
So you got a mismatch? Send me the file paths.

B)
If they're all wrong you can click "Ignore".

So for 'A' just remove all mismatches from the list using the DELETE button. Then rename. Then deal with remaining ones in the next batch. Which presumably also solves issue 'B' since you can do those in the second step.

You never ever have to go back to Explorer to rename files. But you may need to rename files one at a time using "Force Query" (shift-click) mode. See FAQ.
