In my version 5.1.6 (r10435) I believe is the latest version. The Copy Paste from the "New Names" section or right side Is behaving differently than in previous versions.

I used to be able to match a movie and just click on the new name marked with 2 in screenshot and press copy (Ctrl+C) and the matched filename and path would copy.
it would give this output when pasting

Code: Select all

"B:/Clean/Movie/Winnetou and the Crossbreed (1966)/Winnetou and the Crossbreed (1966).[1080p.x264.3.000Kbps.23.976Fps.2.0.AAC].[eng].{imdb-tt0061197}"

in this version it gives this output:

Code: Select all

"Winnetou and the Crossbreed (1966)"

If I now want it to copy correctly I have to: double click the entry>edit name>double click result to get all selected and copy.
Can we please return the original behavior, the extra steps are very cumbersome.

This is something I use very often in my existing library to correct the odd filename after I have done a fix or metadata updates and don't want to use Filebots Rename feature.

There are no steps to really perform, Match any movie or tv show select matched output on the right and copy and paste somewhere. I have not changed anything in filebot for some time. I hope it is not just on my side, I am not sure how I could have done this but you never know.

Duplicate of Wrong format being copied.

Copy & Paste for Episode / Movie items has been unified across both Episodes and Rename tools. That means that when you copy & paste from Rename ➔ New Names it'll copy the Episode object (same as copying Episode times from the Episodes tool) and not the formatted file path. That'll allow users to quickly duplicate Episode items within New Names via CTRL+C / CTRL-V.

What is your use case?

Why copy & paste the file name from FileBot to then manually rename the file though? Why not just click Rename and let FileBot do it? Maybe I misunderstand your use case?
