I have looked through the forums for an hour and have not found a solution so thought I would ask.
Filebot is great when it was working but it seems since I updated it everytime I try to rename something it asks me for the series name.
It never use to do this. For an example, I open filebot and drap a single episode of a tv show (new.girl.323.hdtv-lol) from my desktop and click match
and filebot come up with a box say enter series name and it already has desktop in there as a name but if I enter new girls it is fine. I do not want to enter
the name everytime. Can it not just look at the file name and work it out from there.
I worked out that it must be taking the files location as its series name so I put it in my new girl folder under series 3 and then the box comes up with series 3.
Next I tried and dragged the whole series 3 folder into filebot and that worked but all other 22 file were already renamed so this did not make sense to do this.
The reason I rename stuff from my destop is I extract it to there first and once renamed I like to put the file in a couple of locations and it also reminds me what file
I need to move to where. If I put them in ther correct location to begin with I will lose track of what is where.
Sorry for the long post but the more info you have the better chance of getting the right answered. Hopefully someone can help.

Can't reproduce the issue.
Have you tried the latest test release?

Re: Filebot asking for series name everytime
That's because your folder is called "Series 3". Just call your Season 3 folders Season 3 like everybody else and filebot won't think that it might be a show name. 

Re: Filebot asking for series name everytime
That is not the issue here as it does the same when on the desktop, but with the new version of filebot 4.1rc with the same file in the same locations rename just fine even when in the Series 3 folder.rednoah wrote:That's because your folder is called "Series 3".
