Re: Moving to nfs broke
That's what usually worked before. I was able to just access the nfs drive before moving and then it worked fine. Yep, I would imagine that some actions, like opening the folder via the file browser, perhaps even file read / write operations, etc will auto-mount the network drive. While other other ...

Re: Moving to nfs broke
But in that specific case, it won't help since the filename also has a colon, that should be cleaned up Well, that you can fix in your custom format. Just replace all the : colon at format time, e.g. the {plex} format guarantees file paths without : colon, but you can do replacement with custom ...

Re: Want a refund. Ended up going with Bazarr because I couldn't automate filebot.
I have received your PM... Now I have to ask... why buy a life-time license when you can't afford it? You didn't have to in the first place. We literally advise you not to do that: https://www.filebot.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=6265 I'm really curious here, as I am considering removing the life-time ...

Re: Want a refund. Ended up going with Bazarr because I couldn't automate filebot.
Subtitle automation would be achieved by calling the Fetch subtitles for all files on a schedule. You would be expected to the somewhat familiar with the command-line, so that aspect is indeed a bit of an advanced feature. That said, FileBot doesn't even require a license for subtitle downloading in ...

Re: Moving to nfs broke
This usually only happens, if the nfs drive was not mounted on trying to rename. You can access the drive and thus mount it and then hit rename in filebot for it to be okay. :idea: File path validation will indeed flag : colon and friends. File paths that are known to exist will not be flagged. So ...

Re: Ability to Configure NFO Output
Possible, but I've never seen season-level NFO files. Any information could instead be added to the series-level NFO or the episode-level NFO. If Plex devs would provide a season.nfo sample file then I could have a look. As far as FileBot metadata is concerned, the season title is part of each ...
