Is it possible to have one format for movie files, another for subtitles, and have them rename appropriately?

You can't have extra formats, but you can do whatever it is you're trying to do (you didn't say) with a single format.


So, what are you trying to do?

Well, I'm trying to rename a video file:

Drive:\Genre\Movie (Year)\Movie (Year)

But for subtitles, I wanna do:

Drive:\Genre\Movie (Year)\Movie (Year).en

That's pretty basic. The default examples cover this use-case perfectly fine:

Code: Select all

{n} ({y}){' CD'+pi}{'.'+lang}
Read the plex thread I linked if you wanna understand how it works.
