| Config Setting | How it Works |
|---|---|
| Dry Run | Test script to view output without committing title changes to Plex |
| Try Alt Title if No Episode Indicator | Try finding title base start from a "-" or "\" if S0xE0x isn't found in the file name |
| Series Year | Not required, use if there's multiple shows of the same name you need to narrow down |
