[TOOLS] FileBot TV Renamer and Subtitle Downloader

FileBot is the ultimate TV Renamer and Subtitle Downloader. Instantly organize all your TV Shows and Movies. It just works. Easy.

FileBot is really smart about matching your episodes or movies with online data from sources like TVRage / AniDB / TheTVDB or OpenSubtitles / IMDb / TheMovieDB. The naming format and folder structure FileBot will apply to rename your media files is completely up to you. It's extremely powerful and customizable but at the same time really quite simple.

Fetching subtitles has never been easier neither. FileBot will automatically lookup subs from various sources and intelligently match them to your media files. Just drag your files in and FileBot will do the rest.

The GUI is extremely efficient, it's all just a matter of 2-3 drags/clicks. But if you're the really lazy kind, you can automate just about anything using the fully-featured cmdline interface.

it's a great tool for people recording tv in the UK as the xml schedules don't provide season/episode numbers. which is a pain in the arse if you want serviio/xbmc etc to recognise the files.

i use media center to record my programs, then dvrms-toolbox to rename the files to series name/episode title - and from there filebot can detect the show and rename it to the correct format. works really well.

I'm currently trying to develop a tool like this (but mine looks awful now... :? ).

Does it automatically rename subtitle next to the video?

Would it be possible to add an option to save the new names in an nfo that's readable by Serviio instead of actually renaming the files?

Have you looked into my collection of useful FileBot scripts yet? If you're using filebot from cmdline, on a headless machine or just for automated downloading & processing, light-weight artwork fetcher, etc these scripts might be of interest:

Script Index:

You can use these out of the box, or modify them to your needs, or build something different entirely in which case I'd like to hear from you. ;)
