Good afternoon everyone,
I'm a long time user, first time poster, I've never really had an issue with FileBot before, I usually use it for Shows but I want to rename my Movie library, I'm having an issue where it's not finding the right Movies. Right now I am using the Fetch Data button and selecting TheMovieDB, is there a way to manually search for movies like with the Episode tab? Thanks for the help!

If series / movie auto-detection does not work, then you can use SHIFT-CLICK <database> to force manual input and selection of the series or movie. You can manually fix an individual match via Double-Click ➔ Edit Match.

Re: Wrong Movie Names
Here's what I get:
If you get different results, then I would run some trial & error tests with newly created folders and empty files, see if that works, then narrow down why the original file paths don't work. A typical reason would be lying *.nfo files that were accidentally left behind in the parent folder.
Console Output: Select all
$ filebot -rename -r "In Work" --output . --format "{plex.id}" --db TheMovieDB --action TEST --log INFO
[TEST] from [In Work/(1981).For.Your.Eyes.Only/For.Your.Eyes.Only.(1981).mp4] to [Movies/For Your Eyes Only (1981) {tmdb-699}/For Your Eyes Only (1981).mp4]

Thanks! I guess it was reading the nfo files with the metadata before I set it right. Once I delete all the files and just left the media files it finds them no problem. I appreciate your help!
