![]() ![]() Collbee requires Windows, while FileBot works with Mac, Windows and Linux. Whatever your media renaming needs - whether it’s quick and painless or slow, but thorough - both Collbee 1.0 and FileBot 3.8 are available now as a free downloads. The best way to do this is to use the format: 'MovieName (year).extension' such as 'Top Gun (1986).mp4' or 'Avatar (2009).mkv'. It will use the format pattern used for movie or episode media files with its. It’s also technically possible to embed metadata into your file attributes and download artwork for shows too - these require additional scripts that are freely downloadable. Once youve prepared your media files, its time to name your media in a way that allows Emby the best chance of determining what it is. mnamer (media renamer) is an intelligent and highly configurable media. It also lets you embed subtitles into your media files too. Once you’ve confirmed the matches a preview of how the files will be renamed will be shown in the right-hand pane.įrom here, FileBot really earns its corn: don’t like the way it’ll rename your files? Click the Fetch Data button again, but this time, select Edit Format to choose how each type of media is named up.įileBot also has some useful tools up its sleeve - want to reverse a recent rename operation? Click the notebook icon to access a list of renamed items, allowing you to right-click any and choose Revert to restore the original name or names. Then click the Fetch Data button to choose which online database to search for both renaming and metadata purposes (FileBot supports a range of different music, movie and TV providers). Simply drag in the files you wish to rename in batches: movies, multiple episodes from the same TV show or music tracks from a single artist. If you’re frustrated by Collbee’s limitations - another is that there’s no undo function should you decide you preferred the things the way they were - then take a look at FileBot instead.įileBot - which is open-source and cross-platform - is a little trickier to get started with, but it’s blessed with a straightforward user interface and offers you far more control over the whole renaming process. for example: - The file: c:usersmedownloadsthe-outpost-s01e06-hdtv-x264.mkv could be renamed to: m:TV SeriesThe OutpostSeason 1The Outpost - S01E06 - The Book of Names. However, you don’t get to choose how your files are renamed - they should work fine with XBMC and Windows Media Center - and if your files aren’t at least reasonably identifiable by their filename then you’ll have to manually rename them and hope Collbee recognizes the new format. Once TV Rename knows about these folders (more on this later) it will process media files and move them to the specified location. The app goes further: it’ll also download and embed additional metadata and even artwork into your files if you wish. Simply choose how you want your files renamed and organized via a series of tick boxes for movies and TV shows, then select the folders containing your media and watch Collbee go to work in the background. Windows users looking for a painless solution where most of the hard work is done in the background should take a look at the recently launched Collbee 1.0. ![]()
