Adding "three spaces" and a (1080p) after every filename

Post by Fussifuss »

Hello, i'm new to FileBot and the forum (purchased a lifetime license) today and have some questions regarding the file name format i use for my TV-Series collection since years.
From what i have figured out, the following code comes close to what i use in my TV-Series collection:

Code: Select all

{n.upperInitial()} - {'S'+s.pad(2)} E{e.pad(2)} - {t.upperInitial()}
It gives me:
The Series Name - S01 E02 - The Episode Name.mkv

There are just a few things missing that i can't find the solution for. And since i'm not familiar with Java coding at all, the learning curve is slippery steep :-D
I want the file name to be like this:
The Series Name - S01 E02 - The Episode Name"three spaces"(1080p).mkv

I ALWAYS put three "spaces" between the last letter of an episode name and the (1080p) or (720p), but i can't figure out the code to realize this.
There is no need to get the (1080p) or (720p) from the videos resolution with an automated routine and i would prefer to change it manually in the code when needed.
I have 95% in 1080p anyway.

I have furthermore no needs for a custom file path, since i'm pushing the renamed files through MKVToolNix to edit/name the video, sound and subtitle files after codec, format, bitrate and stuff in the video container.
I do save my TV-series to external USB HDD's, so there are no RAID-Servers or NAS devices involved (if someone's worried about the "three spaces" causing problems with SQL databases and Linux servers.

I really hope there is a solution to this.
FileBot seems extremely powerful in its abilities.
Awesome program (which i have yet only discovered like 2% of the possibilities it provides).

Thanks in Advance :-)

something like this

Code: Select all

{n.upperInitial()}{' - S' + s.pad(2)}{' E' + e.pad(2)}{' - ' + t.upperInitial()}{'   ('+ fn.match(/1080p|720p/) + ')'}

I copypasted your code and it didn't do any changes.
It says: "Pattern not found"
So it's still on:
The Series Name - S01 E02 - The Episode Name.mkv

FileBot will strip away any sequence of space-like characters and replace them with a single space character irregardless of what your code produces. It's therefore not possible to add three spaces.

OK, i see.
But it doesn't either give me the " (1080p)" at the end with a single "space" character between the last letter of an episode name and the (1080p).
As i said, i don't need this (1080p) or (720p) to be automatically changed if i chose a video with a certain resolution. I would rather prefer it as a default file name that adds to every file i rename regardless of the resolution.
Like:
The Series Name - S01 E02 - The Episode Name (1080p).mkv

If i run into a 720p file/season, i would like to change it manually or use the saved pattern to match the resolution of the video.
Like:
The Series Name - S01 E02 - The Episode Name (720p).mkv

I would like to add this " (1080p)" to the code line i found working for me (if this is possible)?

Code: Select all

{n.upperInitial()} - {'S'+s.pad(2)} E{e.pad(2)} - {t.upperInitial()}
Is there a way to do this?

e.g.

{n.upperInitial()} - {'S'+s.pad(2)} E{e.pad(2)} - {t.upperInitial()} (1080p)

Wow, THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!!
It did work.
The thing is, that i tried this exact addition but it didn't give me any positive results earlier. That's the reason i opened a thread here.
I maybe forgot to apply the new code or did a wrong procedure. Who knows.
Thanks for the help and the quick response. I appreciate this very much.
I love it, when devs care about their projects as you do.
Surfed the forum since hours before i even registered and found you to be really caring and helping out with the issues and questions people have.
This is rare and precious. Kudos!!!

Cheers~ I'd appreciate a more professionally interesting question for next time though~ :lol:
