Baggio Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 (edited) Thanks for this 👍 I seem to have an issue with the scaling though and can't click the start button. Also when selecting the dropdown in Number 2 it move''s the dropdown over to the right hand side. I'm using a 4k TV so am not sure if its my scaling or the app so i thought id let you know Edited March 21, 2023 by PaulyC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It adds scroll bars, so you should be able to access the whole form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superrob3000 Posted March 21, 2023 Author Share Posted March 21, 2023 v1.0.3 adds renaming of video files (which I forgot to add in the original version). @ci2own, @zugswang thanks for pointing that out. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of curiosity, is everyone naming their files after the games title? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocketeer Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 Thanks for the tool. As a feature request, including the ability to select specific folders you want the tool to be run against. For instances, 1. manuals & 2. Box front and exclude other folders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
