It uses tmdb to help identify and rename files so they are accurately [identified by plex](https://support.plex.tv/articles/naming-and-organizing-your-movie-media-files/ "Plex File Naming") etc. </td></tr><tr><td>**Cost:**</td><td>$6.00 Annual or $48 Lifetime</td><td>Link:</td><td>[https://www.filebot.net/](https://www.filebot.net/ "filebot")</td></tr><tr><td>**Tips:**</td><td colspan="3">- If Filebot doesn't quickly identify your file try renaming it to remove the extra characters etc that Makemkv can sometimes add.
- It can be helpful to know the year the movie was released and include (year) in the file name when a match is being difficult.
- You can customize the file presets to include additional info such as Editions etc. In the example below I include my M: drive so in addition to renaming it's moving the final file to it's permanent location as part of the action.
