Passing JRE flags to filebot?

Is it possible to pass Java flags to filebot? I'm investigating some Wayland issues on Linux, and I'd like to try a different AWT toolkit (which is available in the JRE) but it fails:

Re: CLI: How to output *only* the new name?


Here's what I get:


Mine is similar, just with an extra "WARNING: java.io.tmpdir directory does not exist" but that's fine.

Re: CLI: How to output *only* the new name?

You guessed it right: I'm trying to call filebot from another script. I have an unusual filesystem situation so filebot's own rename/symlink structures don't quite work for me. So I'm writing a program that uses filebot only to identify the "clean name" of a given media file.

CLI: How to output *only* the new name?

With a command like:
$ filebot --action test --db TheMovieDB -rename *.mkv
The output is very noisy, like:

WARNING: java.io.tmpdir directory does not exist
* Consider using --mode interactive to enable interactive mode

Weird TMBD match for a Korean movie

The movie is called JUNG_E and has a page on TMDB:https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/843794?language=en-GB

However FileBot matches it to a single 1996 movie called Jung. Is this a FileBot issue or something wrong with TMDB's API?
