Hallo FileBot-Community,

i have one simple question.
Is there are a way to get the series title from a video file name without rename the file?

i.e. euhd-flash-s03e09-720p -> Flash (2014)

i need to know this because i would like to move specific series to an specific path (where the series already exist)

Thanks for your answers.

When processing files, the destination path is completely up to you, so you can specify the original filename as new filename and have FileBot organize files accordingly:

Code: Select all

X:/TV/{n}/Season {s}/{fn}

@see http://www.filebot.net/naming.html

When processing files, full metadata (including the series name) is stored as xattr in the filesystem.

Yeah i know

but i've a default folder for series:

Code: Select all

Y:\Medien\Serien\{n}\Staffel {s}\{n} - {s00e00} - {t}

but some series that i don't watch:

Code: Select all

Y:\Medien\# Temp\{n}\Staffel {s}\{n} - {s00e00} - {t}

but i need to move it by myself...
i would like to code some script to watch wich series are in this "# Temp" folder.
Before FileBot move series i would like to move it individually by that series in the "# Temp" Folder.

Do you know what i mean? ^^

No. You need your format to come up with different paths for different files.

e.g. custom folder mappings for specific shows via an external csv file:

Code: Select all

X:/{csv('map.csv')[n] ?: 'Default'}/{plex}

~/map.csv

Code: Select all

Firefly;Classic
Game of Thrones;Current
