Accented characters

On Debian I get an error when running

Code: Select all

java -jar ./FileBot.jar -script fn:renall --db OpenSubtitles /media//* --format "/media/filebot/{n}_({y})_by_{director}/{n}_({y})_by_{director}_IMDB({imdb})_Part{pi}_of_{pn}"

FileBot exits and I have to remove all the accented characters from directory and filenames before FileBot can go through properly.

Is there a way for FileBot to keep going despite meeting names that it can't handle, or an easy automatic way to convert accents to normal characters?

Here is the error message:-

FileNotFoundException: /01/Batch_01_02/C'est arriv?? pr??s de chez vous (1992)

Sure. Use ascii() for each expression that you wanna normalize. e.g. {t.ascii()}

Haven't had a chance to try this out yet, but are you sure that this isn't an I/O problem with the filesystem?

I tried it again with

Code: Select all

java -jar ./FileBot.jar -script fn:renall --db OpenSubtitles /media/01/* --format "/media/filebot/01/strict/{n.ascii()}_({y})_by_{director.ascii()}/{n.ascii()}_({y})_by_{director.ascii()}_FILE({fn.ascii()})_IMDB({imdb})_Part{pi}_of_{pn}" --action copy

And the programmed hiccuped with this:-

FileNotFoundException: /media/sde1/home/seequcn/private/rtorrent/ATMITW-1/Smultronst??llet (Wild Strawberries) (1957) Ingmar Bergman

Failure (?_?)

I think FileBot has trouble with processing and talking to the OS when it comes across (unicode?) accented characters.

Ah, it's not the FS that can't handle Unicode but the input FileBot gets from the console. I guess somehow between bash and filebot startup the input data is messed up. Just use FileBot/Groovy scripting instead of cmdline then.
