FP suggestion: TheRenamer


Karlston

Recommended Posts

May I humbly recommend this (IMO) amazing utility be added to the FP software. I use it almost daily, and it saves me lots of time and the tediousness of manual file name editing.

 

It's function is to very quickly rename (via drag and drop) unreadable TV episode and movie file names into much more readable and usabale format. From the site...

Automatically rename and organize your TV shows and Movies. Also moves them to your Media Library!
TV Series Episodes and Movie File Renamer works with IMDb.com, TV.com, theTVDB.com, EPGUIDES.com and MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) from WikiPedia.

theRenamer renames your TV or Movie files into a neat and orderly format.....and adds in the TV show episodes titles!
 
From this:   [vd-mux-ita]The.Unit.1x01.Piromane.ITA.DVDMux.[colombo-bt.org].avi
To this:       The Unit.1x01.First Responders.avi
......... in just 1 simple Drag and Drop motion.

 

The format is very customisable. For example, mine is configured to rename the above file to "The Unit - 01x01 - First Responders.avi".

Thanks for suggestion.

We have recently added similar app Advanced Renamer.

How does it compare with?

 

Edit: It seems TheRenamer is no more maintained. Last update Sep 05, 2014.

This one seems to pull data from various sources eg imdb and more specific to movies and tv shows. If it's not being maintained...  :dunno:

As LeetPirate says, TheRenamer is specific to renaming TV episodes and movies, it's not a general file renamer and would be better for its specific purpose.

 

Also, the lack of recent maintenance is not really important IMO because it works well right now and the sites it uses for data ( IMDb.com, TV.com, theTVDB.com, EPGUIDES.com and MMA (Mixed Martial Arts)) are likely to stay around for quite a while.
