I recently ran filebot over my files and it worked out ok but of course there were a few things that needed to be corrected, nothing big.
Unfortunately I found that the NFO files generated are not able to be updated once filebot has renamed the files, at least not as far as I can tell.
Question: How can I force filebot to regenerate the tvshow.nfo or movie.nfo files so they have the updated information?
Force re-generating NFO file (tvshow.nfo movie.nfo)
Re: Force re-generating NFO file (tvshow.nfo movie.nfo)
1. Delete the existing NFO files
2. Drop files into Filter and then use Attributes ➔ Apply ➔ Export NFO files
Applying Post-Processing Features after the fact only works if files have already been processed with FileBot and thus have xattr metadata readily available.

That is perfect!
I've completed them now, thanks a lot.
Is there a way to do this from the command line/terminal?

e.g.
Please read --apply post-processing features › Apply Post-Processing Features via the --apply option from Terminal for details.
Shell: Select all
filebot -find /path/to/files --apply nfo
