This was the FileBot format that worked for me in the GUI and CLI. Using the supported braces.

{' {imdb-'}{imdbid}{'}'}

Renaming some TV Shows using FileBot and looking for some information.

FileBot bindings for TV Shows Episode and Series are:
{episode.info} = TheTVDB::76119::7941931
{series} = TheTVDB::76119
{id} = 76119

Looking at what ChuckPa wrote to above:

The only FileBot binding that I am aware of that will give both Series and Episode is

{plex.derive{' {'}{episode.info}{'}'}

Return this:

NOVA - S47E13 - A to Z - How Writing Changed the World {TheTVDB//76119//7941931}

We canā€™t use semi-colons in MacOS paths, so they are automatically turned into forward slashes by FileBot.

Considering that TV Shows will have a Series number and an Episode number what format does Plex expect??

Thanks for any advance info!

@ChuckPa Regarding Filebot. Is the aforementioned plex ID scanning currently active for TV Shows? It doesnā€™t appear to be.

C. Will there be a new TV scanner ā€“ YES!

Using {id} in FileBot when matching for Series (TV shows) doesnā€™t give a TMDBID or IMDBID it gives me a TVDB ID. Using FileBot {imdbid} or {tmdbid} with Series results in no ID.

{plex.derive{' {thetvdb-'}{id}{'}'}
The Daily Show - S26E31 - Bill Gates {thetvdb-71256}

Itā€™s not. Iā€™m eager for it too. :slight_smile:
