:?: What is the purpose of "updating names", perhaps episode titles? Those don't typically change much over time... Usually they don't but in some shows they do, or rather, the databases initially have all episodes as "Episode 1", "Episode 2", ... and someone later updates the titles. One example i...

I'm using keeplink for files. I'd like the option to update the names of certain files without reverting and reprocessing them. The current workflow is: docker exec <container> /usr/bin/filebot -revert /media/tv/show docker exec <container> /usr/bin/filebot -script fn:amc --action keeplink --output ...

To expand a bit on this idea, is there a function or an option to use as source file, instead of a media file present on disk, a MediaInfo xml report? The idea would be to host a FileBot service on a remote server, upload the MediaInfo report file named as the source file and have FileBot return the...

I would propose a second channel in the deb repo for the beta releases, which seem to be fairly stable anyway.
So in addition to deb [arch=amd64] https://get.filebot.net/deb/ stable main
there'd also be deb [arch=amd64] https://get.filebot.net/deb/ beta main

Oh, didn't realize. But it doesn't seem like FileBot is involved in the remote processing. This line: const dst = src.toUpperCase().replace(/[^A-Z0-9]/g, '_') is the only piece of code involved in the renaming, right? I was wondering if it could be made so that FileBot processes the information on t...

I'm using TheMovieDB::TV for series and I was wondering why I can't find the {info.OriginalLanguage} binding there. The website seems to support the information: https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/78941 but the binding doesn't seem to be there. filebot -rename --db TheMovieDB::TV --action test --format '...

Could this be reworked so that FileBot receives a file name plus information about the type of file and it returns a filename and location? E.g. curl "somethingsomething/post" --data-urlencode "file=${file}" --data-urlencode dir="$(basename ${file})" --data-urlencode output=/Media --data-urlencode l...

Some series aired double episodes which in later releases have been combined into one (e.g. The Office US). In this case I'd have the following list of files: The Office S04E01 Fun Run.mkv The Office S04E02 Dunder Mifflin Infinity.mkv The Office S04E03 Launch Party.mkv The Office S04E04 Money.mkv Th...

It's not really clear how to run those snippets, are they scripts? mappings? Also I managed to fix the rename with the following: --q 'my show' --filter 's == 3' --mapper "episode.derive(episode.season, episode.episode + 1)" and using strict mode. What's not clear is why +1 instead of -1... this is ...

I'm having trouble understanding how to use --mapper . I have the following list of episodes: My.Show.S02E01E02.Extended.720p.BluRay.x264-NTb.mkv My.Show.S02E03.Extended.720p.BluRay.x264-NTb.mkv My.Show.S02E04.Extended.720p.BluRay.x264-NTb.mkv My.Show.S02E05.Extended.720p.BluRay.x264-NTb.mkv My.Show...

The way it's written now the dots aren't an option, they're always there.
You should probably rework the format to make them optional.

My bad, it was a poor paste, you can probably remove this entire section: if (_HDR_out.findMatch(/dolby/)) { more = allOf { vid["HDR_Format_Profile"] } { vid["HDR_Format_Level"] } { vid["HDR_Format_Settings"] } .join(" ") _HDR_out.append(more) }

Updated version: { def _HDRMap = [ "HDR10": "HDR10", "SMPTE ST 2086": "HDR10", "SMPTE ST 2094 App 3": "Advanced HDR", "SMPTE ST 2094 App 4": "HDR10+", "Dolby Vision / SMPTE ST 2086": "Dolby Vision", "Dolby Vision / HDR10": "Dolby Vision", "ETSI TS 103 433": "SL-HDR1", "SL-HDR1": "SL-HDR1", // , Vers...

The reason I'm using this check is that in the original snippet I then use specific HDR_* properties from MediaInfo to assign specific HDR profiles or names. The {hdr} binding works but only returns "HDR" when in this case it's an HDR10+ video. Your last snippet works for my use case: { def _HDRMap ...

Recently tried to run it and it seems it's no longer working. In particular it seems it's a Groovy failure on my side, the following bit no longer returns any element: { def vid = video.first() assert vid.findAll { p -> p.key.startsWith("HDR_") }.size() > 0 } p.key is null now, but the file does hav...

No, sorry, I don't have that many files with those characteristics.
If you have samples I can work on that though.

My post wasn't really about the format itself, I was just saying I would have expected a different behaviour. Meaning, regardless of the information on TheTVDB about the series, I was expecting '{y}' to yield the year of the first episode of the first season, and not specials. Is "firstAired" popula...

I recently encountered this anomaly with Ted Lasso. This happens: filebot -list --format '{ny} - {sxe}' --q 'ted lasso' --db TheTVDB Ted Lasso (2013) - 1x01 Ted Lasso (2013) - 1x02 Ted Lasso (2013) - 1x03 Ted Lasso (2013) - 1x04 Ted Lasso (2013) - 1x05 Ted Lasso (2013) - 1x06 Ted Lasso (2013) - 1x07...

Although this could backfire if a show is ongoing and not ended, you may want to check that as well.

Any examples for these lines of code? My customisation is related to web sources, which you currently bundle in WEB-DL, I have some lines to match them separately. Another small issue is that {source} seems to respect original case now dvdrip will result in dvdrip instead of DVDRip as before, not su...

Is there a way to customise the map {vs} uses?
I find it a bit too restrictive.

You could start by setting minimum settings, anything MKV is better than other formats, anything x264/x265 is better than other stuff. If audio is 5.1 or above AC3 or DTS as preferred formats for 1080p, AC3 640 for 720p, AC3 448 for standard def. If audio has fewer channels, FLAC or AAC are acceptab...

Not really what I'm trying to do.

I chose this way of organising files because I put files first in fast storage for processing, then move them to a much larger, slower storage space. Fast storage is very limited.
How would a master structure work?

I have quite a large portion of my files as symlinks from one location to another, example: Avatar.2009.1080p.BluRay.DTS.x264.GROuP/Avatar.2009.1080p.BluRay.DTS.x264.GROuP.mkv -> '../../../../../../../cephfs/Media/Movies/Avatar (2009) [James Cameron]/Avatar (2009) [1080p x264 - 5.1 DTS Eng, 2.0 MP3 ...
