August 6, 201411 yr Does anyone have a good script to automatically rename movies? I basically want to run the script on a given directory tree, and have it find all movies that it can parse to a legit movie name, and move it to a target directory. thanks!
August 6, 201411 yr Author erhmmm... that looks like a windows program... was hoping for a python script or something like that.
August 9, 201411 yr I haven't used it in a while, but CouchPotato might be able to do this. It's main feature is auto downloading, renaming, and moving movie files. I think you can run on existing files though, but you'd need to check that.
August 11, 201411 yr Author yeah i've used couch potato, and for renaming files it seems to be hit or miss. I think i will roll my own script and post it here when done
August 11, 201411 yr If you don't like Windows does OS X suit? www.filebot.net does a fine job with most filenames and you can dump folders onto it too!
August 11, 201411 yr Personally I just use Meta Browser on my windows machine. It runs basically as a service from the tray in the task bar and monitors my \TV Share and \Movies. If it screws it up it's easy to go back in and re-point it to the correct Movie/Show using IMDB ID, or TheTVDB.com. It's pretty much invisible running in the background and works well.
August 15, 201411 yr If you don't like Windows does OS X suit? www.filebot.net does a fine job with most filenames and you can dump folders onto it too! FileBot has a Linux version not to mention a CLI and a page full of scripts to try, at the URL above.
August 17, 201411 yr Does filebot (command line version) run under Slackware? Is a Docker for this appropriate? I could/would create a basic webgui for the CLI if it were available in a Docker.
