Re: Log to Spreadsheet

Log to Spreadsheet
Hi there, So... At present I have filebot renaming my media files, and outputting the log to gmail and pushbullet (was considering moving totally to it for logging)... I find though I don't always review the log straight away, and pushbullet isn't the best for searching for old logs... Gmail as it ...

Re: update-mes not working

Re: update-mes not working
Legend... worked a treat...
So I use Hazel to run the FileBot scripts on a watched folder... Now would you recommend running the above script on my series folder when it detects changes, or use the myepisodes update extension of the amc script...

just regarding the whole "--def unsorted=y" sorting out the unprocessed/conflicted files... let me see if i understand it right... will it move the files that conflicted/where unprocessed by filbert as a result, out of the processing folder (the one the script is running on) and into a folder called ...

Re: move files but don't write over
sorry... noob moment... upon reading the log, i found they were saving in "~/.filebot/reports/"
is there a way to change this?
for the purpose of logging this thread... I used --def "exec=chmod 544 '{file}'" in my script to get the desired result

that seams to bring in all the files, ever done... :S what are your thoughts on using --def exec="set-permissions" "{file}" to pass processed files to the set-permissions app i created? also side question... the storeReport=y... where does that save the report to... or would you recommend --log-file ...

Re: move files but don't write over
i've got a separate automator "application" with a chmod in it... but it runs on all files every time... do you perhaps have experience with just passing the files resulting from the filebot shell script to the chmod command, so only the files it's named get their permission updated...
