genres placeholder for renamer #1575

Open schoenid opened 1 year ago

schoenid commented 1 year ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I've used tinyMediaManager so far. My movie library is organized like ${genres[0]}/${movieSet.title}/${title} (${year}) in terms of tinyMediaManager. I've seen that it's not possible to do the same in MediaElch, because there is no genres placeholder for the renamer.

Describe the solution you'd like It would be nice to have a conditional placeholder like {genres}<genres[0]>{/genres} for MediaElchs renamer. I see only one problem in the way, like MediaElch manages genres like tags. There would also a possibility be required, to allow to sort these genre tags, to be able to address one as the main genre. To select a genre tag with "Ctrl"-Click would be a possibility, to make it the first ...

Describe alternatives you've considered Alternatively I have either to manage the library manually by moving files and folders in a file manager, or to continue to work with tinyMediaManager.

Hi,

thanks for this feature request! It has been requested in the past (https://github.com/Komet/MediaElch/issues/582) but I never got to implement it. Other stuff needed to be done first. After having rewritten the movie scrapers (major overhaul in https://github.com/Komet/MediaElch/pull/1163 ), I think the next "big thing" will be a proper renamer-overhaul.

I've written a bit about some ideas in https://github.com/Komet/MediaElch/issues/436#issuecomment-465558237 That would also match the index operator [0].

@schoenid Do you know if TinyMediaManager has conditionals such as {dvd}DVD{/dvd}?

Regards, Andre

Hi @bugwelle

Not in version 3. (I don't want to upgrade ...)

Thanks for your answer. Best Regards, Daniel
