Add timestamp to new files

[ziemowit]

Hello

is it possible to use filebot on a Synology to rename any other file by just adding a timestamp? I have a scanner which scans directly to a path on my Synology NAS. Output would be scan0001.pdf, scan0002.pdf, etc. I would like to run a process which will detect any new file in this path and rename it by adding a time stamp e.g. 2016-01-28-12:00_scan.pdf
Is that possible with filebot?

You mean with the FileBot GUI? You can do generic file renaming like this:
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2072

If you want to do that from the command-line then you can just use bash:

Im looking for something that doesn't require any manual interaction. Maybe filebot is not really capable.

You're looking for something very basic. Watching files and renaming files. If you want to use FileBot you'd write a Groovy script for that. But you might as well write a bash script, because you'll find more help for that.
