Attributes:
- [xattr:net.filebot.metadata] Episode or Movie Object
- [xattr:net.filebot.filename] Original filename

Usage:
FileBot and other programs have the original filename and all episode / movie metadata available regardless how the file is named. Sure nice to have full metadata instantly / offline available should you need it. Please read Plain File Mode and Re-organize previously organized files using local xattr metadata for details and examples on how to re-match files to previously stored xattr metadata.Disable this feature via the -no-xattr command-line flag:
