Movie vs. TV Show Sorting
Posted: Tue Sep 30, 2008 9:46 am
For those of us that "find" movies and shows online that are "free" here is a little trick to use with hazel:
Setup a rule to monitor both filetype (movie) and filesize.
As an AVI, There are about 5MB per minute, so a 2 hour movie is 600mb and a 30 minute TV show is 150 MB
As an MPEG, there are about 1.3 MB/minute, so a 30 minute show tends to be 75 MB
I use these rules to automatically sort my downloaded movie files into "Movies" and "TV" and "Clips"
It works 99% of the time.
