Is it possible just to leave the format alone?

I'm running filebot mainly to fill the metadata, I'd like to leave the filename alone. I know there's {original}, but that'd involve me running it 2x.

Also I've ran AMC on a few folders now, and idk why but it fails sometimes and leaves the files as just ".avi" (while still leaving a huge amount of files fine), which now the filebot program can't find the file to rename btw.

{fn} is the current filename

{original} is the very original filename at the very first time the file was renamed (and has no value if the file has never been renamed before, or if xattr metadata has been lost)

I recommend using the GUI to explore bindings and values:

Thanks, I guess I missed that one, but yeah I'll use {file.name}

If you use {file.name} you'll probably duplicate the file extension. I'd use {fn}.
