Batch Edit Some Old TV Show Files for Plex
November 16, 2015 6:50 PM   Subscribe

I am still running Snow Leopard (maybe issue #1) yet have tried to batch edit shows in MetaZ and Subler, but I simply don't know how to do a bulk edit.

For example, in tv show Millennium, years back I mistakenly made them run numerically so Season 2 Episode 3 is mistakenly typed up as "S02E25. Sense And Antisense.mp4". Oy Vey. I just need to change the episode on each for these 3 Seasons (and a few other TV show sets like Twilight Zone) and don't know how to do it. I'm not concerned with any other editing. Thanks!

If you're ok with one season at a time, A Better Finder Rename should do this. They post previous versions. Here's a free alternative.

Response by poster: The free alternative NameChanger (older version for 10.6) worked perfectly and easily..thanks for the the link!!

If you were running windows*, I'd heartily recommend Bulk Rename Utility. It's a bit ugly, but more powerful than you could imagine.

Making this comment for future readers who have a similar problem on windows.
