Got it working, thanks!

Re: --filter and fine-tuning

You can manage your list of explicitly excluded (or included) shows with an external text file. --filter '!readLines('/path/to/excludes.txt').contains(n)' Having some trouble with this syntax, probably due my failure to grasp the vagaries of script/cmdline quoting. Here are the key lines from my ba...

Re: AMC and episode matching (match by title)

Ok, it's working now. One of the problematic shows will record tonight (I think) so I'll update on effectiveness soon. It worked perfectly. Episodes of The Outer Limits were correctly identified from both the 1963 and 1995 series, where normally the 1963 episodes would have been misidentified as 19...

Re: AMC and episode matching (match by title)

Ah, thank you, those were good suggestions, although they didn't quite work. AbsoluteAirdate returns the airdate as the renamed episode number which I can't use. --mapper is declared as an invalid option.

Re: AMC and episode matching

No logs, and no paths processed incorrectly. This was just a general question based on long observation. Your answer is that I need to change other things so as not to include the episode number in the file name.

Thank you

AMC and episode matching (match by title)

Is there a way to influence the AMC script to match episodes by title when an episode number is present? My input series filenames are in the form of <name>.<S00E00>.<episode>.<ext> Most of the time this works fine, but there are two cases that pose problems. One is when broadcast EPG data has an ep...

Re: [FAQ] How do I activate my license?

Removed "-u sc-tvheadend" from the command and it worked. admin is the owner of the .license file, so I guess sc-tvheadend doesn't have permissions to overwrite it. Perhaps I should chown it to sc-tvheadend???

Re: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space (92 MB Max Memory)

FYI, I've decided to abandon my attempt to run PVR on the DS216se. It is just clearly underpowered and not up to the task. Thanks for the assistance, I did learn a few things along the way.

And yes, the DSM216se is woefully lacking in RAM and cannot be expanded!

java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space (92 MB Max Memory)

After installing the latest FileBot beta to resolve an issue with JRE12, I am now having frequent failures due to Java Heap Space shortage, as seen in the log below.

Re: 'Skip small video file' on Syno DS216se

The file skipping problem seems to be resolved by the minFileSize argument. The crash was resolved by the beta, but the beta has now introduced a Java heap space issue. I will start a separate thread for that.

Thanks for all the help!

Re: 'Skip small video file' on Syno DS216se

Oh, I get it. It finished rebuilding the cache and now it's walking through the media folder as I told it to with the mediainfo command. I will cancel that, and see what happens in normal operations. If I have to do this command again it will take some thought because my target folder is a subfolder...

Re: 'Skip small video file' on Syno DS216se

Got the beta installed, thanks. Ran mediainfo again and it did not crash. Now rebuilding cache which looks like it might take a week on this processor! Interesting that it seems to have a record of files that it has never touched on this NAS.

Thinking the beta would be worth a shot given my current problems, but I don't see it in the Synology package center (with Betas turned on) for either of my NAS devices.

This is one of several problems I am having after moving my PVR setup from my main NAS to a secondary. I will report each issue in its own thread.

Bug renaming with folder name containing periods

When renaming a newly created PVR recording file, the folder name "The Man from U.N.C.L.E" becomes "THE MA~N". (The file name is created correctly.) I have resolved the issue by using the replaceAll function to remove the periods, resulting in "The Man from UNCLE". Howe...
