Automatically put files with similair names in a folder together - Superdurt - 2024-01-17 Before I really understood all the possibilities of JF I thought is was a good idea to have a single folder with my whole movie collection in it but now I want to have all the movies in their own separate folder (easier to manage the cover files, subtitles, etc.). I did a lot already bij manually selecting the files and placing them into folders but with a lot of movies to go I wonder if there is an easier, less labour intensive way to do this. Even if it automates half of what I still need to do it's worth it for me. RE: Automatically put files with similair names in a folder together - tmsrxzar - 2024-01-17 i did this to move single movie files to a subfolder of the same name movie.title.here.2008.mkv -> movie.title.here.2008/movie.title.here.2008.mkv can be modded to do movie.title.here.2008.* *edit: only for linux bash: Code: for f in *.mkv; do python: Code: import os, re RE: Automatically put files with similair names in a folder together - Superdurt - 2024-01-17 I'm running W11 on this box but I might be able to translate this to a Windows CMD script. Thanks for your reply! RE: Automatically put files with similair names in a folder together - tmsrxzar - 2024-01-17 probably pretty easy, list files of *.mkv, replace the filename's extension and use it for the directory name, make directory, move everything with that filename to the new subdir, repeat it's been years since i did a batch file for microsoft |
