Sorry for the wall of text that probably distracted you from that part.
From your reply:
This "name format" seems to mix different kind of information:
- Pure ones. Extractible from the file content: fps, video sizes, video codec, audio codecs ... These ones should be usable through Siren's variables
These are the most important for me. I would settle and be happy if SIREN could actually produce output like this at the end of the current file name:
(29.970fps_720*480_mpeg2_vob_ntsc__dd2.1_dd5.1)
I undestand that vob/svcd/etc and ntsc/pal might be not doable. I can live with that.
- Computable ones. Svcd, ntsc looks for me as a "standard" based on codecs, video sizes, fps ... so they seem redundant with the "pure" ones (I may be wrong on this point).
You are correct, they are redundant, the reason to put them is to be able to "filter" and search for the term.. ie "pink floyd learning to fly vob", if it comes empty, then I fill confortable downloading that video with out fearing I already have a vob-quality on my collection.
- Potential ones like the "year of release" or "ripper" may have been included in the meta data or be already present in the current name. They may be usable with Siren
I dont expect SIREN to use them or get them. These usually are given by the ripper in the name of the file, if the year is not present, I manually add it, since I love to make filters and listen only to music from certain years.
- Unusable ones. Siren can't extract watermarked information
I dont expect SIREN to use them or get them. I watch every video and properly tag it, manually, as it is for me better to have a "clean" version (no logos) than to have a VH1 logo on the screen.
So, do you think I can use SIREN to produce and append this to the video files I have?
Thanks again for your time and effort.
