Start a task every 10min make me crazy, files are added 3 times / week, is it useful to stress my DS218+ for this ? Yep. That's why I am suggesting to Run filebot command only if there are new files . Check every 10 min / 60 min / 360 min / etc until you find the desired trade-off between responsiv...

Which specific database / series / episode are you testing with?


Screenshots or Command & Console Output is always helpful. Please read How to Request Help.

A. You can create a Schedule Task and then schedule that task to run every 10 minutes. That's the low-code easy solution. :idea: A slight improvement (at the cost of basic coding) would be running light-weight find first to check if there are new files and only run heavy-weigth filebot when there ac...

Yes. See Plex Naming Schemes › Advanced {plex} operators for details: unix ... {plex} path without file name validation (i.e. allow : colon and ? question mark in file paths) e.g. { plex.id.unix } :idea: Even if your custom format generates Windows-invalid file paths, FileBot will still enforce Wind...

You are using --action keeplink by accident: --action symlink --action keeplink NOTE: If you specify the same option twice, then the last one counts. :!: --action keeplink will indeed MOVE the file and then create a symlink to the new file path at the old file path. BE AWARE THAT THE FILES WERE MOVE...

This does not work, no symlink created. Rather copies files over to destination :?: What does the console output say? :idea: Note that have already confirmed that --action symlink creates relative symlinks. Setting net.filebot.symlink=absolute via the configuration file does not fundamentally chang...

You mean to remove character like : and * that are fine on macOS but not on Windows? FileBot will indeed do that for any move / rename / copy / etc operation by default: https://www.filebot.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=12627 So you can just use Plain File Mode with {fn} current file name as format: ht...

:!: You are passing an invalid format, because the format you are actually passing is not the format you think you are passing, because bash is interpreting $variables inside "..." double-quoted strings, before calling filebot : $variables will be resolved: $ echo "I like $TEST" ...

You can match information from the file path, e.g. [ some number ] at the end of the file name, like so: \.\[\d+\]$ is a regular expression that matches patterns such as .[150] at the end of the file name.

Did you log into QNAP before opening FileBot Node?

What does the log say?

Absolute Symlink

Please provide context. What are you trying to achieve? What have you tried so far? (NOTE: complete console output would be helpful)

Please post filebot -script fn:sysinfo output. See How to Request Help for details.

If you read the {group} binding manual then you will see the code we have copied: If your files are already uniformly well-named, then you can directly match arbitrary release group names from the filename. e.g. match -group at the end of the filename: { fn.match(/[-]([^-]+)$/) } The regular express...

Yes. :arrow: Please read How do I organize files for Plex? and {plex} format and {edition} binding for details and copy & paste solutions: e.g. Avatar (2009) {tmdb-19995}/Avatar (2009) {edition-Extended Edition} [720p, x264, AAC] { ~plex.id % { " {edition-$edition}" } % { " [$vf, ...

:idea: Each {...} will return a value which is then used in the file path. { fn.match(/[-][^-]+$/) } matches the regular expression pattern [-][^-]+$ from the file name. You can see the entire { fn.match(/[-][^-]+$/) } bit as a single atomic variable that you can copy & paste without understandi...

You click TheMovieDB and not TheTVDB : https://i.imgur.com/5oRSF8B.png :idea: Clicking the Episode Mode: TheMovieDB button will instruct FileBot to look at the files that you have currently loaded into Original Files and match them to Episode objects from TheMovieDB . Your format is then applied to ...

Likely a temporary server-side issue. Please try again tomorrow.


Note that it works for me at this point in time:

License Error: UNREGISTERED ... FileBot requires a valid license. Please run `filebot --license *.psm` to install your FileBot license. * FileBot is running as [LOCAL SERVICE] using [C:\WINDOWS\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Roaming\FileBot\license.txt] Bad License (>_<) :idea: Each user has ...

e.g. just add it to your format: {n} - {s00e00} - {t} { fn.match(/[-]([^-]+)$/) } e.g. use {jellyfin} operators as seen in Answer 2 above: Z:/{ jellyfin.id % { fn.match(/[-][^-]+$/) } } Fetch failed: Try again in 8 seconds (1 more) => net.filebot.web.HttpServerError: https://api4.thetvdb.com/v4/logi...

Unfortunately, we don't allow dictionary entries. Lots of movie names start with or end with "Silence" . The upper-case / mixed-case variation is much less likely to mismatch. This is a FileBot limitation. :idea: You can however match information from the file path if your files already fo...

:idea: {group} will give you the standard case for the group at hand. The standard case for any one particular group may be lower-case, upper-case or mixed-case and any variation will get normalized to the standard case. Note that you can match information from the file path if {group} doesn't do wh...

If you must keep the original folders, to keep the series artwork in the series folder and the season artwork in the season folder, then you'll want to only rename the file. Your proposed format may rewrite the season folder (i.e. create new "Season 01" folder if "Season 1" alrea...

Answer 1 You'll want to organize files into a new structure / new parent folder. The new parent folder does not contain any folders when you set out, so you won't run into any left-over folder issues. See How do I organize files for Plex? for example. Everything that applies to Plex also applies to...

If the SxE numbers in the database don't match the SxE numbers in the files you have, then you will want to start by reading FAQ #2 in the manual and following all the links.
