I was wondering if there is a way to setup somehow that specific words are removed from the collection name during NZB import.

The scenario is the following. I have setup an automation to automatically get NZBs from a couple of indexers and save these NZBs in a folder, from where Alt.Binz automatically imports them. I have also setup Alt.Binz to automatically rename the unrared files to the collection name.

The thing is that the NZB files often contain some extra descriptions at the end of the NZB file, that are not needed / are of no use to me in this case. For example many NZBs end with "-p0stb0t", "-0bfusc@ted" etc.

I am looking for a way to automatically remove these extra descriptions from the collection name, as the collection name is going to be use to name the video files during extraction.

Has anyone already solved this, or does anyone have any ideas on how this removal can be automated?

Many thanks in advance.

I am wondering the same thing.
I have a small batch file that will accomplish the task when run in the unrar directory, but am unable to grasp how to incorporate it into the altbinz program to get it to run automagically. (I know it has something to do with the execute on complete thing under nzb2, but can't figure out the proper command to get it to work)
So if there is someone willing to lead the step by step please let me know.Or if this has been covered in a previous thread please post a link to it.
 thanks for any help
