FileBot

Filebot just dried my tears...

Due to some stupid mistake on my side I lost the first parts of a lot of my movie filenames, like 2001 A Space Odyssey (1968) became 68), losing 2001 A Space Odyssey (19. Still no clue what happened, but after some search I found >>
I have my old filenames back and now at least know what is what and can rename them again properly.

Thank you, Thank you...!!!

If you've miss-renamed the files with FileBot then you can always Revert via the History. That said, having xattr metadata sure is useful for all kinds of reasons. Sounds like you found a really good reason. Cheers!
