Looking for SIMPLE tv renamer with custom strings (like EpNamer) - Jyujinkai - 2018-04-12
I have been using EpNamer for years.. but recently I got a new system and I can not find a install for it as trhe website is gone and all the versions I have tried do not work (I get errors)
I used to also use FILEBOT.. but now it costs money.. and not a little money it is super expensive!
Dose anyone have a cool renaming application for TVshows?
Thanks!

I wouldn't say $20 is expensive for a premium product like filebot.

If you don't want to spend $19.99 you could always build it yourself https://github.com/filebot/filebot

Yes you could. But please respect the request from the developer...

@Karellen That was implied with me linking the github no need to paste here...
Edit: I'll just leave this here too https://www.filebot.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=5738. Nowhere does he tell the guy no don't build it he just offers no help in doing so...

Didn't see anyone point to the WiKi which has a ton of Re-namers listed (and for multiple OS's)...

This new move from the Filebot developer, although fair, really looks somewhat awkward. Not long ago the developer was providing binaries to every OS avaiable, chocolatey updates and all. People built their HTPC with it and then suddenly he decided to begin charging for the software that before was supported by donations and to do that dropped support for Windows 7 and Linux.
As I said, it's fair enough and I think there wasn't many people giving the donations it deserve, but seens strange when we remember the software is basically a scrapper/agregattor of information retrieved for other sites (I remember that anidb complained about Filebot years ago and he just said he would keep the program this way and they could ban him it if they wanted).
That said, I recommend Tiny Media Manager for renaming. It can replace Filebot, to some extend, since it has command line options.
