FileBot r10846 fixes this particular issue. It was caused by FileBot not using all possible options as a failsafe when the likely matches come up empty due to low string similarity of query / series name. Thank you for reporting the issue.

You can make a Custom Post-Processing Script for your needs. The Notify via Pushover example will get you started.

e.g.

:idea: DSM will store all the additional information into the @eaDir folder: $ find . ./@eaDir/Alias - S01E01 - Truth Be Told.mkv@SynoEAStream ./@eaDir/Alias - S01E01 - Truth Be Told.mkv@SynoResource ./@eaDir/Alias - S01E01 - Truth Be Told.mkv/SYNOINDEX_MEDIA_INFO ./Alias - S01E01 - Truth Be Told ...

:?: What does System Information say? :idea: Please run filebot from console and then press CTRL+BREAK or CTRL+SHIFT+PAUSE (see Capturing a Java Thread Dump ) on your keyboard (while the console window is in focus) when FileBot is stuck. That'll print stack traces and tell us exactly where FileBot ...

:idea: "series" and "TV shows" are usually the same thing. What exactly are you trying to do? What exactly are you struggling with? Feel free to include sample file paths as text so that we can see what you can see. :?: What have you tried? What did the console output say? (the console output is the ...

:idea: I've created sample files and I cannot reproduce the Nirvana in Fire {tmdb-64197} issue: [TEST] from [/input/Art/Entertainment/Anime/TV Series/([email protected]) Spy x Family (2022-2023)/01 - ([email protected]) Spy x Family 1st (2022)/Spy x Family 1st (2022) EP-23.mkv] to ...

Yep, that's the complete console output. I'll have a look and run some tests.

The console output is the text in the black area:


Please select everything from the first line to the last line in the black area, and then paste this text here.

I mean the complete console output, not just the command. Like this. If I have the console output as text, then I can copy & paste the input file paths, recreate your use case with empty files, and run tests.

Yes, the Configure Thai fonts settings will be available in the next release. We are looking into automatically switching fonts depending on the characters at hand, but that might be tricky to do efficiently or without downsides as it's not necessary for the vast majority of users. EDIT: :idea: You ...

I ran tests with filebot-xpra and can confirm that Thai fonts don't work by default. Installing the fonts-thai-tlwg packages makes Thai character show up correctly. We'll add that package to the list of packages installed by default for our filebot-xpra container.

Can you copy & paste the console output as text so that I can copy & paste the file paths as text to run tests?

f.dir.dir is simply "the parent folder of the parent folder of the file at hand" and that's it. If the file at hand is X:/A/B/C/D.txt then: f = X:/A/B/C/D.txt f.dir = X:/A/B/C f.dir.dir = X:/A/B f.dir.dir.dir = X:/A :idea: Your custom format therefore assumes a certain file structure. If the "the ...

Where is the extra folder path name coming from?

f is the current file path. f.dir is the parent folder of that and so on.

Maybe you need to do f.dir.dir.dir to capture the folder path you want from the original file path?

You could add {f.dir.dir} to the beginning of your format to generate exactly the absolute target file path you want. Note that you will also need to enable Import companion files if you want to process folders like “Featurettes” alongside their corresponding movie file. Note that you can also exp ...

Strange indeed. Maybe try with sudo? Maybe try on folder specifically not with -r? Maybe try -c? Maybe run a few tests to set / remove custom xattr on folders to see if that works?

You can set the scale factor via Settings ➔ Display ➔ Scale as shown below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1pqJoZ7-BY :idea: You may need to restart your computer / restart FileBot for the display scale settings to take effect. :idea: If Accessibility settings don't work, then they probably just do ...

:?: If you share sample file paths as text then we can run tests and give you more specific advice. :arrow: In general, the FAQ: How do I fix misidentified files? manual might have a solution for the task at hand. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dh2WXQSzgJA :idea: If you have inadvertently renamed ...

:!: Friends on TMDB doesn't match your files and none of the alternative episode orders match either as far as I can tell. :idea: However, Friends on TVDB (default Airdate Order) does seem to match your files exactly. :arrow: The easy solution is therefore to click on TheTVDB (make sure that you ...

:?: Which database and episode order are you using? (Note that FileBot does not support IMDB and so IMDB series / episode information is never the authoritative source of information. If you're using Plex / Jellyfin / etc then your library settings decide which database is being used.) :?: What are ...

I’m thinking that when i use filebot to rename and find metadata with movies and tv shows without any metadata embedded in there files Yep, for Movies and TV Shows we have very extensive support for fetching additional information that is exposed to scripting as well. Perhaps filebot could do the s ...

:idea: Yes, assuming that we know all the information you want to put into these *.nfo files, but we would have to create a Custom Post-Processing Scripts first. Maybe something like Generate custom NFO files will get you started. :!: One potential issue that I could foresee is that FileBot doesn't ...

:idea: You can do the same thing in different ways: {n} ({y}) { n + ' (' + y + ')' } { "$n ($y)" } $ is notably not used for variables. $ is however used in "string values" for String interpolation . :idea: {ny} is a convenience binding for Name (Year) . {ny} notably ensures that you don't end up ...

:idea: If your format generates a file name (and not a file path) then FileBot will rename the file in place: { ny.colon(' - ') }{ " {tmdb-$tmdbid}" }{ " {edition-$edition}" }{ " [$vf, $vc, $ac]" } Avatar (2009) {tmdb-19995} [1080p, x264, AAC] :idea: Alternatively, if you choose to organize files ...
