New issue 94 by sigpark: Program functionality to "rename" an avi file to
the IMDB catalogue number
http://code.google.com/p/movie-browser/issues/detail?id=94

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. By renaming an existing avi file, you lose the "source origin", for
example the-wrestler-source1.avi, will no longer be evident when lookin gat
possible multiple different sources of same movie - i.e. the ability to
differentiate is lost
2. Suggest writing the IMDB catalogue name as a prefix, e.g
tt1125849-the-wrestler-source1.avi, OR using a meta data tag to store this
information
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Sorry this is not an issue, I thought it to be better functionality

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
OS:Vista. movie-browser:0.81

Please provide any additional information below.

Apologies guys - I confused my test notes, I meant to say folder. So when
reading
your folders, you can no longer see the movie name. Perhaps a concatination
of the
IMDB tag?

The idea was if you RENAME a folder to IMDB catalogue number, you can no
longer read
the title of your films at the folder level should you want to tree-walk
your
library outside of movie-browser, and copy say a movie folder to a usb key.
Was
suggesting concatinate the tt1234546 catalogue # to the folder name to
preserve both?

ie tt123456-Start_Wars

Perhaps I should not have suggested, am happy for you to ignore and close
if you
think best.

Probably you should try to make a simple example. For example, what to do
with "Star
Wars/sw06.avi" ?

why would you want to rename your folders to the imdb id? Is the rename
feature doing
that?

Honestly I don't know :-) - I got mixed up!

In the settings form - Miscellaneous - there is a config
item "Automatically rename
folder to IMDB Title"

Like with the bug report issue 93, the tag "renameTitles=true" in the
preferences.properties file does not get set from the settings form. When
set
manually to a "True" as above, then when you import a movie folder NEITHER
the folder
or the avi is renamed. I have tested several scenarios eg

folder Mission_imp_3\mi3.avi would expect to be renamed to "Mission
Impossible III",
with perhaps year (2006).

ok, this needs a different name as you can have an other main movie service.
and this needs a fix indeed
