I don't understand the format editor in the GUI. I enter, for example, "a: b".colon(' ') and I get nothing at all. What is supposed to happen? How is this helpful? I know you're always trying to push me to test everything here, but I don't get it. The Format Editor allows you to see what ...

You are presumably using docker to run the FileBot Node container. In this case, you yourself configure the public host port. That's the -p option on the command-line but ASUSTOR presumably gives you a WebUI for that. Please post screenshots as we are not familiar with the ASUSTOR WebUI.

:idea: FileBot may read multiple megabytes via libmediainfo . Which bytes are read is entirely up to the libmediainfo code. Typically a few bytes from the beginning of the file and a few bytes from the end of the file. Maybe a few bytes from the middle as well. :arrow: Q: Can I process video files w...

:idea: You can configure FileBot to use Episode Order: Absolute . FileBot will then only be aware of absolute numbers and thus only match (and format) with absolute numbers: https://www.filebot.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=14356 :idea: You are dealing with Anime . That can be tricky at times. Reading ...

colon() already takes care of normalizing surrounding white space as well. You'll want to use the Format Editor to run some tests, e.g. paste "a: b".colon(' ') and see the result. You are using Groovy: https://www.filebot.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=10824 But this question is more of a &qu...

This is what I mean. My script can't possibly know where to put a : for a proper match for such cases.

If i Rerun the command to clean clutter it deletes the file If a rerun then deletes the folder then there was a temporary file there at the time. unraid and how long it takes to delete or move a file Delete will always be fairly instant.

:idea: A single format can account for multiple types of media.

{ f[0] }/{ ~plex } will always generate D:\Chucky\Season 02\Chucky - S02E02 - The Sinners Are Much More Fun because { f[0] } (the first path component; i.e. the drive letter) is D: and { ~plex } (i.e. {plex} path but without TV Shows category folder level) is Chucky\Season 02\Chucky - S02E02 - The ...

This will permanently set the default Episode Format. You can therefore skip this step once you have already set your preferred format.

At which step exactly are you having trouble?


Works as posted as best as I can tell...




Alternatively, you can also use the Discord Support Channel if you prefer that.

Please read [FAQ] How can I share screenshots on the internet? if you need help with screenshot sharing.


That said, we humbly request sample file paths as text rather than screenshots. We prefer text because copy & paste works a bit better with text.
