With the help of a friend, I have installed Gentoo on my server. However, a lot of
applications I am used to running have some complications in getting them going. The Final
piece of the puzzle is Filebot

The Meat

There is an ebuild of filebot that is a few versions old and does ...

where can I get FileBot r6859? on the current Download Page only FileBot 4.8.5 (r6224) is available

1. the nonsense is caused by $NOW inside of $LOGDIR (improperly escaped) now fixed in updated script.

2. deleting mediainfo from script Filebot will still try to process all files in dir.
running $ filebot -script fn:amc --file-filter "age < 1" --format "{d} {f}" -r /zata/done/ser/ --output /zata ...

I ran this script

#!/bin/bash

NOW=$(date +"%c")
LOGDIR="/home/gallo/.log/filebot"
LOG="filebot_$NOW.log"
DST="/zata/view"
TV_FORMAT="{plex}"
FILEBOT="$(which filebot)"

$FILEBOT -mediainfo -r "/zata/done/ser/" --file-filter "age < 1" --format "{d} {f}" -exec $FILEBOT -script fn:amc {f ...

1. I will add //--file-filter ...// to script and try/test. Also -r I shall report.

2.Hopefully this works and excludelist will not be necessary.

3. I'll give this a try as well. should I pipe this line with read

IF filebot -mediainfo -r /files --file-filter "age < 1" --format "{d} {f}" | read ...

specs:
Ubuntu 18.04.3 headless.
This box is a local seedbox and media server.
Files are hardlinked.
excludes has been in use for several years.

here is a the script
#!/bin/bash

NOW=$(date +"%c")
LOGDIR="/home/gallo/.log/filebot"
LOGFILE="filebot_$NOW.log"
DST="/zpool/view"
SRC="/zpool ...

folder structure is '/zpool/done/cine/` forgot where to find logs on FreeBSD. I suppose the folder name could be an issue, though I presumed filebot would only "look" and subfolders and not consider the parent folder name

filebot is installed on FreeBSD, ssh from MacOS the call is

filebot -script fn:amc --db TheTVDB --output "/path/to/plex/" -no-xattr --format {plex} --action hardlink -non-strict -r "/path/to/done/series" --log-file amc.log --def excludeList=amc.txt

or

filebot -script fn:amc --db TheMovieDB ...

I am having the same issue, however it is for actual small files, Tom and Jerry each video is ~5 minutes long and ~70MB in size. how can I bypass or force filebot to "see"/process small files

I can get a script to run*


#!/usr/ports/shells/bash
filebot -script fn:amc --db TheTVDB --output "/zata/plex/" --format {plex} --action hardlink -non-strict -r "/zata/done/ser" --log-file amc.log --def excludeList=amc.txt


however there is A LOT of repeating error output while running ...

running from kitty shell on MacOS via ssh into BSD box via fish terminal.
I should switch to bash?

pastebin changed to unlisted (should be viewable)

root@freeBSDbox ~# filebot -script fn:sysinfo


CALL
filebot -rename --db TheTVDB --output "/zata/plex/series" --format {plex} --action hardlink -non-strict -r /zata/done/ser/Are*

OUTPUT

the issue is my "plex" TV Show folder only has 2 files

root@freeBSDbox ~# ls /zata/plex/series/

I am on FreeBSD 12, when trying to install filebot I get the following error
which version of java should I use/search for?

tried {n}, {albumArtist} and {media.Performer}
{n} gives same result as {artist}

{albumArtist} and {media.Performer} results in

or

kind of hit or miss. none of the other binding are applicable to artist name.

what 'm trying to do is use the album artist as the main folder and have the featured artist in the file name so

this way all my 2pac (or another artist) stays organized by artist ...

1. OK

2. My movies are 9GB+ I do worry about 1-2MBs

3. thanks, I'll look into it and share what I come up with

perhaps this is already available, but what I'm looking for is to toggle/switch off
clearart, disc & folder from artwork thats downloaded or that artwork + plex (or XMBC) downloads artwork that can be read by plea or XMBC as the users prefer.

i have

I've sen a few post about Hazel and that people finally get it to work. but they don't post their rules. the Hazel forum is less active than here (most recent posts are from last year). Dev's comment about filebot is

You'll have to check with Filebot and see what environment it is assuming ...

Pakalolo

do you have a copy/pic of your hazel rules to run the script?

In the end I gave up on the super crazy scheme. I have my own quite nutty scheme almost working how I want it to.

Given the weeks and hours I've sunk into making filebot work, I'm calling it good enough and walking away with the tattered threads of my sanity.

Thanks for your help.
