I watch movies on my mac a good bit and am wondering is there a way to automatically rename the movie files to something more manageable for the media centre app Plex to scan them?

For example, I'd like them to be changed from batmanbegins2007xviddaxxo.mkv or whatever to the following format: /users/movies/films/Batman Begins (2005)/Batman Begins.mkv

I know it has something to do with custom tokens. Any ideas?

It's not clear from your example. The filename has 2007 but you want it to rename with 2005? I assume that's a typo.

If you lookup "match patterns" and "custom tokens" in the help, you should find the info you need. I don't think Hazel will be able to split "batmanbegins" into two words as that would require a good bit of AI (or an actual human).

Okay cheers.
