Sorry for digging this old thread out, but after a long time of perfect FileBotness, I have to slightly change my automation process and am now trying to switch to the AMC script instead of all my custom stuff. I am, however, once again stuck on the topic of subtitles :/ I have always used the movie ...

Great, thanks! Is there any way to get the foldername in a command? It would make my matching much more failproof, to just match the end of the foldername as the group.

Btw, new groups:
TV4A
DOUCEMENT
EPHEMERiD

I have encountered a problem with one of the recent group additions : ENG. If you have English subtitles, the release groups often append the language identifier .eng at the end, so Filebot thinks that the group is ENG when it's actually something else. The group is actually called Encoderflaccid ...

Great That answers one of my questions. Now I only need to know how to distinguish between IDX files that only have one subtitle track and the ones that have multiple tracks. How can I count the number of results, that the matchAll()-function returns, so I can use that in the if-clause

Great, this is near perfection now! One thing I'd like to do though is to recognize if the IDX file contains multiple subtitle tracks or not. Now there would be two ways to do that, but unfortunately I couldn't get either one to work on the command line. Match against "index: 1". Since "index: 0" is ...

I tested the schemes and found that only renaming the .idx works. For the .sub I haven't been able to get it working. The structure of my files before processing is: somefilename.mkv somefilename.idx somefilename.sub somefilename-eng.idx somefilename-eng.sub somefilename-eng-forced.idx somefilename ...

Okay, so for .idx it seems pretty simple then, I could just do this for every language that usually comes with what I have: {if (ext == 'idx' && file.text.matchAll('id: en')) '.eng'} But what about the corresponding .sub file? Basically, it has the same filename as the .idx, just the different ...

I was really happy when I found this thread, because I didn't think Filebot supported guessing the language from .idx/.sub pairs. Unfortunately, I had to find out that apparently this feature was dropped in the newer versions of Filebot. I know that these VobSubs are not state of the art anymore ...
