Well, thank you again for the quick pointer, this has been driving me nuts for a long time now

Just a quick update. I took two separate movies that had both been identified as 'Abduction (2009)' and moved them into a different directory (out of pre-process) and they worked perfectly. Thank you again for such a quick reply and for the answer to the problem, I don't think I would have ever made ...

HAHAHH, you have got to be kidding me....so because the movie has another title called "Process" and my directory is called "pre-process" it basically matches on that instead of the actual title of the movie? Well, I will change the directory to something different and see if the problem goes away ...

I have been running filebot for years on a Linux box and it works great about 98% of the time. I only use it for movies. However, every so often I get a movie that filebot (via TheMovieDB) misidentifies and when it does that it always, as in 100% of the time , identifies the movie as Abduction (2009 ...

Looks like we figured it out at the same time!

Thanks!!

hummm....very interesting.... I had some other files in my pre-process directory so I decided to run my script without the test and it moved the file in question: Rename movies using [TheMovieDB] Auto-detect movie from context: [/mount/media/pre-process/Bridget.Jones.Diary.2001.1080p.BluRay.x264 ...

Thanks Rednoah -

I don't have any other duplicates to test with right now, but it would appear that filebot can tell the new file is the better file, any idea why it won't do proper conflict resolution?

filebot -mediainfo /mount/media/pre-process/Bridget.Jones.Diary.2001.1080p.BluRay.x264-NoGroup/Bridget_Jones_Diary/Bridget_Jones_Diary/26790426113Bridget_Jones_Diary.mkv /mount/media/Movies/Comedy/Bridget\ Jones\'s\ Diary\ \(2001\)/Bridget\ Jones\'s\ Diary\ \(2001\).mkv --format "{fn ...

I am using --conflict auto in my script. I have an existing movie on my system that is a lower resolution than the new movie, yet filebot keeps telling me that it is skipping the file because it already exists. Neither file is named using Proper/Repack which I understand overrides quality, so I am ...

rednoah - Thank you for your patience: OK, So I moved my media file (12 Rounds.mkv) to my local machine, went into filebot and went to options => edit format, then pasted this format into the expression box: {genres.contains('Comedy') ? 'Comedy' : genres.contains('Animation') ? 'Animation' : genres ...

Understood - I will move the exact file over and test on it!

Thanks for the patience!

hummm...it is actually working fine via GUI and has some kind of script error in CLI:




CLI error:

This works fine with Format Editor on OSX: {genres.contains('Comedy') ? 'Comedy' : genres.contains('Animation') ? 'Animation' : genres.contains('Science Fiction') ? 'Sci-Fi' : genres.contains('War') ? 'War' : genres.contains('Documentary') ? 'Documentary' : genres.contains('Fantasy') ? 'Fantasy ...

Here is the code: /usr/bin/filebot -script fn:amc -no-xattr -rename --db TheMovieDB -non-strict "/mount/media/pre-process" --log-file /root/filebot/filebot_amc.log --output "/mount/media" --def movieFormat="Movies/{genres.contains('Comedy') ? 'Comedy' : genres.contains('Animation') ? 'Animation ...

I am trying to add all of this: /usr/bin/filebot -no-xattr -rename --db TheMovieDB -non-strict --log-file /root/filebot.log --format /mount/media/Movies/"{genres.contains('Comedy') ? 'Comedy' : genres.contains('Animation') ? 'Animation' : genres.contains('Science Fiction') ? 'Sci-Fi' : genres ...

AH! Got it. I see what I did. THANK YOU. This now works perfectly: /usr/bin/filebot -no-xattr -rename --db TheMovieDB -non-strict --log-file /root/filebot.log --action test --format /mount/media/Movies/"{genres.contains('Comedy') ? 'Comedy' : genres.contains('Animation') ? 'Animation' : genres ...

So...no idea why adding this: {any{genre}{'NoGenre'}} causes the problem?

I do not have a GUI on the system this is installed so that is not possible. Any help with the command line part would be most appreciated.

Thank You

Here is how I currently call filebot: /usr/bin/filebot -no-xattr -rename --db TheMovieDB -non-strict --log-file /root/filebot.log --action test --format /mount/media/Movies/"{any{genre}{'NoGenre'}} : {genres.contains('Comedy') ? 'Comedy' : genres.contains('Animation') ? 'Animation' : genres.contains ...
