Copy to text or clipboard

[allratings]

Is there a way to copy the output to a text file rather than renaming the files? I just want to create a list of all of my movies instead of changing the names (which I have already done with this great program). I am wanting a text file list with the genre and rating (I already know the command line code).

Thanks in advance,

I guess this use case is kinda what the List panel is for. Drop your files, copy & paste as text.

Thanks for the quick reply, but what I want is to be able to copy and paste the output and not the input. In other words instead of renaming the files I would like the new names in a text format.

{fn} is the filename, so it'll display the filename. If you want the metadata object then you can use use {xattr} to display that.

Note that xattr metadata is set by FileBot when files are renamed, so it won't work on files that have not been processed by FileBot and thus don't have xattr set.

Again thanks. I just ended up writing a quick app to make fake mkv files which I can then process and rename to get my desired results.

Well, that means you're wasting TheMovieDB resources. When renaming files filebot will store all metadata as xattr, so that all the information you could want is always readily available, and there is absolutely no reason to waste TheMovieDB resources for that.
