I have tried the Rename Finder Items action of Automator, but I can't find the correct way to remove everything starting with the underscore (I have tried. The truncation could be done by either keeping 6 characters from the left or by removing everything right starting with the underscore. I'm just not sure if Filebot can do this. The remaining part of the file name shall be removed. and as the last bit of info i have is the top 3 genres of the movie, it'll be okay to cut one or two of them out so the filename/path isn't too long. but only on a few so far, has it had an issue with being to long. So because of this, i'm putting all the info i need/want in the filename, which is making them pretty long. The effect of truncate() on other types of files is unspecified.

The truncate() function causes the regular file named by path to have a size of length bytes. 10 f.close > nil uncate(out, 5) > 0 File.size(out) > 5. I got tired of that, and quit using the media servers scraping. Returns the extension (the portion of file name in path starting from the last. especially when it comes to DVD Extras, it generally marks every file as being that movie, so when you look for that movie, it can have 50 listings, with no way to tell what one it is. I need assistance with creating a bat or VBSript that will truncate the last 34 characters in the file name then add 'HCL' at the end while keeping the file extension. Is there a way to limit the characters that it renames the file too? - So if it's over the 256 Character limit (with folder path) it'll cut off the necessary characters at the end, so it'll fit? - it'd be better to cut off at the word level, instead of character, so words aren't cut in half, but i'm not sure if that's possible.Īs i've never had a media server, find valid/correct info.
