Rich: How can other folks get involved in your project? Subtitle upload has been on the list as well for a long time. There’s always corner-cases with the filename-based auto-detection logic but it’s pretty mature now.Īt some point it’d be cool I could build a big database of hashes and metadata so files can be matched to episode or movie data with perfect accuracy. Rich: How is it that six years later there’s still more to do? What’s coming in future versions of Filebot? Also there weren’t any proper tools for renaming episodes, downloading subtitle or checking SFV files, just loads of half-baked projects. Reinhard: To scratch a personal itch, as they say. Rich: What led you to start the Filebot project? FileBot uses quite a few 3rd party libraries like miglayout, nekohtml, ehcache, jna, mediainfo, 7zip-jbindings etc Reinhard: Java for most of the application base, Swing for the GUI and then Groovy as scripting engine for user scripts. Next to that it’ll allow you to download subtitles for your files and create or check SFV files. It’s gonna make sense of pretty much any kind of filename and match it against online databases for additional metadata like episode titles, movie genres etc. Reinhard: It’s really just about renaming and organising episode and movie files. I spoke with Reinhard Pointner via email last week (since he’s 13 time zones over from me!) about the project and his involvement in it. Filebot is “The ultimate TV and Movie Renamer / Subtitle Downloader”. The May 2013 Project of the Month is Filebot.
