Feature request: allow silent comman line operations

I have a couple of scripts I call via context menu that look like this to give an example: [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\AntRename 1 - simple\command] @="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Ant Renamer\\renamer.exe -b c:\\directory_rename.arb -aF %1 -g -x" Now, this opens briefly the GUI to execute...

Re: Unable to rename over UNC path.

Indeed that helped! The only correction is a slash quotation instead of double quotation so this I can confirm works as expected: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\AntRename] @="Ant rename me~" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\AntRename\command] @="C:...

I have a renaming script that I call via context menu on my windows device. This for many years helped me renaming folders placed in a remote (samba) share. After upgrading my system from windows 10 to windows 11, I noticed that the renaming over UNC path doesn't work any more. If I copy over the fo...

Help with script - substring needed

I have been using a script to generate .NFO for long time now. Basically it saved the full IMDB url in the URL field. I now moved from Plex to Emby (about time) and emby required the .nfo to contain something like this: <imdbid>ttxxxxxxx</imdbid> Considering I can get the full URL easily with this: ...

Ok I have made some progression in my personal setup.

Answering my own last point: Using: PopularTitleSearchURL = 'http://www.imdb.com/find?s=tt&ttype=ft&q='; Will look for movies only. The next evolution would be: do look for Movies first, if not found attempt "TV Movie", but I guess this would need substantial rewriting (may be not?)

[REQ] can Import handle .url files?

Would it be possible to have the Import function scanning for .url files, and if found give the option to map the content into the URL: field?

That would be outstanding

Thanks

In the pop up gui when prompted to specify the title.

e.g. let's say I have Avatar in the title I select IMDB, it will open a pop up with Avatar in it.

I was wondering if it's possible to have "Avatar 2009" filled in automatically when opening the pop up
