Using Metadata for Rename

[aldog123]

Hi All,

I'm a new user to FileBot, I need help as my hard drive died and when the files were recovered they did not have their original names, the movie titles however are in the "title" metadata(see attached photo) correctly so I'd like to use them with Filebot to rename all of the files(560+) what syntax should I use with a preset to get this done as quickly as possible?

I'd assume this is possible as I see various different types of data that can be used to rename files so I'm hoping that Title is also one.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.



Thanks in advance!

Check the MediaInfo bindings and see if the value you want shows up there:


e.g.

Code: Select all

{media.title}

If you can get the value you want from the file content, then you can use that to mass-rename everything:
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2072

Is {media.title} working for you?

If you have figured it out, please write a tutorial so others can learn from your experience.
