Rename Folders and Files based on IMDB

[GoogleCodeExporter]

It would be great to have EMM rename the folders to properly format IMDB
names e.g.<MOVIE> (<DATE>). Also if renaming the files could be done that
would be a bonus aswell.

Thanks for the great program. WORKS GREAK

I'll try to set up a custom naming where you can choose what to use. Something 
like:

$D = Directory name
$F = File name
$Y = Year
$R = Resolution
$A = Audio
etc etc etc

Then, say you had a folder for "The Dark Knight" and you put in "$D ($Y)", the
file/folder name would be "The Dark Knight (2008)".

Would be nice if you would also have something like
$T = Title from .nfo file

If the origial folder or filename includes reference to source(DVD, Bluray, 
etc) it
shouldn't be removed, as EMM, and some of the xbmc skins can use it to 
determine and
display the source. At least it somehow shoud be handled

[GoogleCodeExporter]

so we just nee one more $ with the source; problem is wher to get the source.
Just using it if it is in the current name maybe be not easy.. first have to 
decide
the "list" of sources that decide where to put tham.... 
Oh well I will think how can we solve this
Thank you nadas

Is $T implemented?  This would be the most important piece of data to me.  Can 
it be 
auto-renamed upon locating the IMDB data?

all this are implemented:
$D = Directory name
$F = File name
$Y = Year
$R = Resolution
$A = Audio
$T = Title from .nfo file
$t = Title from .nfo file (with . inplace of SPACES)

You can just regex match against the current file name to see if it already 
contains
a source marker, if so, and the user put $S (or whatever) then use it in the 
new name
as well.

Just a copy/paste from flags xml:
    <name searchstring="bluray|blu-ray|blu ray">
      <icon>bluray.png</icon>
    </name>
    <name searchstring="hddvd|hd dvd|hd-dvd">
      <icon>hddvd.png</icon>
    </name>
    <name searchstring="hdtv|hd tv|hd-tv">
      <icon>hdtv.png</icon>
    </name>
    <name searchstring="dvd|sddvd|sd dvd|sd-dvd">
      <icon>dvd.png</icon>
    </name>
    <name searchstring="sdtv|sd tv|sd-tv">
      <icon>sdtv.png</icon>
    </name>

if anyone knows any more source markers we could use, please list them.

Couldn't source be saved into the db?
Especially considering the implementation of issue60?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

ultimately it should be. Should be implemented with issue 150.

Wonderful Feature. I have been waiting for the renaming engine to be added to 
EMM
(and support for TV series :D )

Is it possible to add the $L (language) variable too? Also, I like to group my
movies in sets, so how would the directory naming be handled (if the movies 
directories
are not in the same root directory) ?

Having support for relative paths might help.  Also, as previously requested 
(issue
142), can we add support for controlling the case of the filenames?

\U FOR ALL UPPERCASE
\L for all lowercase
\u For First Letter Upper Case
\C ForCamelCase

Implemented in r465.
Renamer now support $S for Sources /dvd,bluray,etc...flags.xml)
all $ patterns now have 2 modifiers
ie:
.$-S. will remove last . if source is empty
.$+S. will remove both . is source is empty

I close this one. 
If you have problems/requests concerning the already implemented bulk renamer 
tool,
please open a new ticket.
