If you're organizing files for Plex, then you'll want to include the movie ID in the file path, that will ensure that the movie can be identified unambiguously regardless of movie name localization, local release date, etc: Movies/Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1938) {tmdb-408}/Snow White and the ...

:!: FileBot Node is a wrapper for the amc script and thus very much ill-suited for a simple "move files into folders using the file name as folder name" type of use case. As far as a "Movies" folder being generated, that's because the default format is {plex.id} which generates target file paths ...

Please post sample file paths as text so that we can run tests. If possible, please include links to the subtitles that you would like to find but are unable to find via FileBot.

I gave strict a try, and I do like that it is picker about matches. However, strict matching mode doesn't bring up the manual match window to sort out the files it can't match automatically. Ideally, it would still give me the option to manually match the files which it couldn't. I recommend using ...

Many movies come with either an Extras or Featurettes folder and i'd like Filebot to ideally hardlink the folder (copy if not available). The Import companion files feature will do just that. You'll have to manually enable the feature though, by going to the setting and checking the checkbox. https ...

:?: What is the episode title of the Grey's Anatomy S21E16 file you have? :idea: FileBot fundamentally cannot reliably match files where the SxE number is either wrong or misleading (according to your selected database and episode order) especially if the episode title is missing from the file path ...

If possible, please add the name of the software so that we can give more specific advice in the future.

FileBot uses HTTPS for all requests, so the https.proxyHost=127.0.0.1 https.proxyPort=7890 bit is probably the important bit.

It might be a proxy issue. The proxy works fine for curl as I mentioned before, but for some reason proxy settings in filebot or java doesn't work. Yesterday I have tried using system proxy and using internal proxy settings, but none of them work. I uninstall the amd64.deb and install a universal ...

Caused by: java.net.http.HttpConnectTimeoutException: HTTP connect timed out Caused by: java.net.ConnectException: HTTP connect timed out There's probably not much you can do. If it reliably and repeatedly doesn't work from FileBot but always works with curl, then that would be most unusual. Could ...

:idea: Looks like the issue might be caused by the recent Java 21.0.7 auto-update: https://github.com/adoptium/adoptium-support/issues/1185 :arrow: We have updated the java-installer package repository to now install 21.0.4 instead. This will happen automatically when the java-installer package is ...

1. For example, it just matched "ROSA.Republic.Of.South.Ah.Sh.t.2023.720p.WEBRip.x264.AAC-[YTS.MX].mp4" as "The Rose (1979)" :idea: API search for "ROSA Republic Of South Ah Sh t" doesn't yield any results, FileBot therefore does not know that ROSA Republic of south ah sh**t exists, and so the "best ...

After a bit more testing, it feels like a file access issue. Yep, looks like a file system issue. Being able to reproduce the same issue on two different machines would however suggest they have something unusual in common. A random guess would be an overzealous anti-virus. :idea: You can manually ...

:?: Can you post the file path of a file that is slow to process? (see Export Original Files / New Names as TSV ) :?: Are you using the latest version of FileBot? What does System Information say?

I have just found out that it could be due to insufficient RAM. Then the service crashes. Is there a way to use the Docker command to somehow restrict the Java heap to -Xmx512m via an environment variable? You can set the container memory limit via the --memory option and the JVM memory limit via ...

Invalid usage: The --output folder option is required Abort (×_×) :idea: Your filebot command does not include the --output folder option.

How can I test if {order.absolute.sxe} return a value so I can decide if use it or not? :?: What is your use case? e.g. add [20] to the file name if order.absolute.sxe is defined: { ' [' + order.absolute.sxe +']' } e.g. since Absolute Order is just a preference, you might get the SxE number instead ...

:!: TMDB has an identifying one true SxE number for each episode. There is no intrinsic one true absolute episode number for each episode, so you will not find one in the base episode record. There are however Absolute type episode groups. There could be none. There could be one. There could be two ...

Looks like clearing the cache didn't do anything. Have you perhaps exceeded your quota? If you use the login button it'll show you the current quota.

I see. So this error causes subtitles to not be downloaded?

Please do a Clear Cache and then retry to see if that makes a difference:
