--def excludeLink=y is a good solution. I forgot the amc script had its own built-in option for skipping already-hardlinked files as well.

I see. Upgrading to the latest version will almost certainly fix the issue at hand.

:idea: The Plex Series metadata agent in Plex uses TheMovieDB by default. You therefore must match and name your files against TheMovieDB in FileBot. TheTVDB numbering and TheMovieDB numbering is identical in most cases, but can be completely different on some cases, depending on the series at hand....

Theoretically, yes. :?: But which database? How to read that database? Which tables? Which columns? That'll be the main challenge. :arrow: If you could write your own standalone tool that exports the watched / unwatched flag to something easy-to-read (e.g. xattr) then that would make the filebot bit...

What version of FileBot are you using?


Please upgrade FileBot to the latest version. Unsupported class file major version 65 suggests that you are using an outdated version of FileBot.

How does FileBot know if a movie is unwatched?


FileBot can certainly select files that are older (i.e. not modified or not accessed) than 90 days and have a low score. That would require basic command-line skills though. See find -exec for details.

:?: Did you configure Plex to use TheTVDB or TheMovieDB? :arrow: Please read the How do I organize files for Plex? guide: Match files against your preferred database. Make sure to use TheMovieDB and Airdate Order in both FileBot and your Plex library settings. https://i.imgur.com/ckd35yJ.png :!: DO ...

But filebot is not added on software list, do you have a workaround ?

The String.pad() helper notably works for any number in any String value:

My main question is why Filebot and/or Synology are treating Shared Folders (NFS) as different filesystems. I thought they'd be treated as the same. Keep in mind that FileBot itself is not doing file system operations. FileBot is politely asking the OS to perform an operation (e.g. hardlink A to B)...

If you use --action hardlink and --conflict replace and if source / destination are already the same file then FileBot will still skip the operation since deleting the hardlink and then creating the same hardlink again is effectively no operation: [HARDLINK] Skipped [A] because [B] already exists :i...

You'll want to process only files that have not yet been processed. :arrow: Since you're using hardlinks, the link count will tell you if the file has been processed or not.

If you rename files then they stay that way. Doesn't matter if you're doing it with FileBot or with something else. There's no way to "temporary" move / rename a file which is then undone on reboot. Here's how Revert files via the internal History works. You can use that to manually un-ren...

1. I want the original folder/filenames on INCOMING_NAS as links so I can continue seeding them without wasting space. You want files on INCOMING_NAS to be links to files on STORAGE_NAS.
