Total noob here and looking for some help.
I've managed to mud my way through making a workable script command to move/rename movies from location A to B, but I cannot seem to get this script to clean up files in location A. I have tried using the --def clean=y command within the main script. I've also tried using the -script fn:cleaner script and neither seem to provide ANYTHING much less the results I'm expecting. Please help
Here is my command that I've made so far... keep in mind this a testing scenario
Since you're using --action copy the original video files will remain in the original location, which means the cleaner script won't touch any folders as these folders still contain video files.
yes, I've read that section many times. Basically, the result Im trying to achieve is to extract the movie file (using copy or move or whatever works) to put it in a renamed file in location B and get rid of the original downloaded folder, files, and whatever else comes in it. I'd like to be able to do this all in the same script command if possible.
I think i got it to work. I used the Move command. It worked when one download finished, trying it now with multiple. Occasionally there are "sample" videos in downloads...what then? will the command not work and I'll have to manually delete folders that have those inside, or is there a parameter that i can set ?

Won't touch any file in folders where there is at least one video file (that is larger than minsize).

How large are sample files? If they're less than 20 MB then they'll be considered clutter. If they're larger than 20 MB then you'll need to make a separate cleaner call and pass in --def minsize with your custom file size limit.
