I have a strange question;
i am in the process to rename some things i had named before and they have a Group tag,
After the renaming again, they show my NoGroup id...

I take it is as it CAPATALISES the group and Then it does not recognize it in the second try....
is there a way to get the groups tag to recogise Those too?

What is your format?

What is the file path you are testing with?

Feel free to make a new thread for help requests.

After changeing some

Format: Select all

{ny.take(40)} - { (sxe =~ /^[0-9]{2}/ ? sxe : '0' + sxe).replace('-', ' - ') }
{' Special '+special.pad(3)}
{ - " Part $pi"} 
- {t.take(40)} - [{any{group}{'NoGroup'}}] 
{source} [{resolution}] {video.codecID.join('-').replace('/', ' ')} 
{[vc, VF, af]} [{bitdepth}{' Bit'}] 
{([(audio.language.take(5) - [null, 'Undefined','Undefined / ja']).join(', ')])}{'; ' +[(text.language.take(5) - [null, 'Undefined']).join(', ')]}

Code: Select all

The release group is expected to be at the beginning or at the end of the file path, and not in the middle, so what you're trying to do will never work, regardless of capitalization.

LiFE is not a recognized release group name.

Was it ever?

Could it have been mismatched from the Better Than Life episode title? (EDIT: we will add LiFE to the case-sensitive list; but that will not make your use case work for reasons above)

What you are doing may have seemed to work in the past, because the first time around the release group will likely have been at the end of the file name, it may also have continued to work even with bad file names due to FileBot remembering the original file name via xattr metadata. See Filename-based Bindings for details.
