FileBot

If you have any finding, please post them. Other users will google "Invalid argument" in the future and will be interested what worked and what didn't for you.

I'd start by adding the missing genres to TheMovieDB. You can of course combine the results of different bindings: { (omdb.genres + genres).unique().take(5) } But you will find it hard to deduplicate "similar but not the same" genres: [Adventure, Drama, Sci-Fi, Action & Adventure, Sci-...

Looks like OMDb API indeed only returns 3 actors. Well, that's that.

Note that FileBot does not use IMDB, and cannot use IMDB as per IMDB Terms of Service.

Why not use TheMovieDB information? You can always contribute to TheMovieDB if something is still missing.

Trying to get the list of {groups} not yet supported: D:\Multimedia\Movies>filebot -mediainfo -r /input --filter "none{ group }" --format "{ f }" I get the following message: File does not exist: D:\input You need to replace /input with the path to your input folder, or use . to...

:idea: FileBot Forums are generally preferred, so that others can find the information via Google in the future. Separate threads for separate topics are preferred for searchability. :arrow: A single license indeed covers supported platforms, Windows, Linux, macOS, etc, but notably does not include ...

What exactly is slow? What custom formats have you tried?

The Invalid argument suggests an internal macOS file system error, i.e. FileBot asks macOS to move A to B, then the OS fails to do so and returns an error message instead: SEVERE: MOVE: A -> B: Invalid argument :idea: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/297008/terminal-what-does-intermittent-c...

You can try just {plex} as baseline for how fast it can be, and then do systematic trial & error testing to see what makes your custom format slow in comparison. :idea: Bindings such as {info} will require additional network requests (unless already cached) so we can expected that to be somewhat...

:!: Can't read from the input folder: Argument[0]: File does not exist: /volume1/Plex/Library/inbox :!: Can't write to the output folder: Invalid usage: output folder must exist and must be a writable directory: /volume1/Plex/Library/movies :?: Did you already grant permissions to the FileBot packag...

If it's a movie I want to add the poster for example, but if it's a TV episode not necessarily. FileBot does not currently support TV episode specific artwork. :?: Perhaps you mean to say that you don't want to add artwork to TV series / season folders? Out of curiosity, why not? You already have a...

Unfortunately, no. The GUI and the CLI are completely separate. However, the concepts are the same, so you can easily copy & paste an example filebot command from the manual and then change or add a few option values to make it do whatever your Presets and Post-Processing Features are currently ...

You'll want to set the format you want and then just process all your files from wherever they may be into the new structure defined by your format, works conceptually the same in both GUI and CLI: { drive }/Media/{ plex.id } :arrow: See How do I organize files for Plex? for details. e.g. $ filebot ...

Likely duplicate of "Unable to establish loopback connection" Windows Store v.5.0.3.0.

Press WIN+R and then run the following command to configure FileBot to use the legacy HTTP/1 API:

Code: Select all

setx FILEBOT_OPTS "-Dnet.filebot.web.WebRequest.v1=true"

We had a number of reports related to our legacy APIs. The issue affecting them is now resolved. We continue to encourage all developers to migrate to our latest API: https://github.com/thetvdb/v4-api :arrow: https://www.facebook.com/TheTVDB/ :idea: You may need to run filebot -clear-cache once, or...

:?: Do you have a particular issue or with FileBot 4.9.7 that you hope to fix with FileBot 5.0.* and above? :idea: FileBot 4.9.7 is stable and works. FileBot 5.0.* started releasing 2 months ago on 2023-03-14 with a large number of changes and is thus somewhat experimental. Please read How do I upda...

Cheers! Thanks for confirming!

The following command will reset all caches, so that FileBot cannot rely on previously cached network response data:

Code: Select all

filebot -clear-cache

You cannot run the FileBot Desktop application without a Desktop OS. :arrow: I would recommend running FileBot on your Desktop PC and rename files on your NAS remotely via a mapped network drive. :idea: If your Synology NAS supports docker, then you could use the filebot-xpra container which runs an...

Cheers! Did you have to set both of these options, or did one of them alone do the job?

(A)

Code: Select all

net.filebot.web.WebRequest.v1=false
java.net.preferIPv4Stack=true

(B)

Code: Select all

net.filebot.web.WebRequest.v1=true
java.net.preferIPv4Stack=false

I see now! The custom properties script isn't working in the first place, because the script is not accessible, and so no custom configuration is written or used: at net.filebot.web.WebRequest.httpRequestV2(Unknown Source) :arrow: In this case, you'll have to manually open the application data folde...

You can further set net.filebot.web.WebRequest.v1 to configure FileBot to use the same HTTP/1 code used by default in previous FileBot 4.* releases:

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:properties --def net.filebot.web.WebRequest.v1=true

Newer revisions log the PSA message to log level ALL so the message can now disabled by specifying a higher log level:
