Re: Calling filebot issue?

OK. Incidentally, doing it that way the GUI is not the same as launching the app package. White background vs dark. Is it functionally the same?

Calling filebot issue?

Hi, I have a beta version installed on macOS 10.14.6 (Mojave) and seeing an error. If there is anything else I can add to help figure this out let me know. $ filebot @/Users/john/Desktop/Plex\ Movies.txt 2020-09-18 22:59:17.465 java[41520:1240860] forwardInvocation: <NSInvocation: 0x7fd03f49f320> 20...

Re: How to install the CLI on macOS?

This seems as good a place as any to ask if you are the maintainer of the Homebrew filebot cask and if you could create a tap for beta versions of filebot. Since I have installed via homebrew the stable version and when downloading a beta version and replacing the filebot app in /Applications I am g...

Re: Add files to rename via list of folder pathnames?

Re: Add files to rename via list of folder pathnames?

I have a list of folders in a text document. I want to get the contents of those folders (via the pathnames in the text document) to appear in the the Rename panel so I can take action on those items. When I add them by this document I don't get the contents of the folders but just the folder as &qu...

Add files to rename via list of folder pathnames?

I have a .txt file with pathnames for folders that contain movie files and subtitle files. I would like to mimic the process of adding the folders to filebot by dragging to the Rename window,, but use a text list of pathnames instead (the list contains a subset of files I need to edit). When I choos...

There doesn't appear to be anything I can do about it since FileBot won't create two files with the same name, and isn't programmed to append an index number for two eng.srt fi...

Re: Feature request: SRT files

This is a tough. Plex says the only way to view sidecar subs is to enable Local Media Assets. I have this disabled because you've mentioned it's the only way to show filebot titles in Plex and not metadata titles. I have Plex setup to download subs from OpenSubtitle but they aren't always accurate, ...

Re: Feature request: SRT files

It's been a few weeks since I worked on this. I guess my question should have been why is "multipart movie handling" labeling .srt files as: moviename CD1.eng moviename CD2.eng? The directory structure and contents before amc script: Volumes/PlexMedia/Seeding/moviename/ --movie.mp4 Volumes...

Re: Feature request: SRT files

I would rather keep what has been downloaded with the file than search on OpenSubtitles, but I need to keep both srt files not just one. You previously recommended using {plex.derive{if (dc > 1) '.'+di}} in my AMC script to avoid one of them being left behind—that looks like the solution. Not sure h...

Should I just remove --def subtitles=en from my script? And I see my token is stale... Run script [fn:amc] at [Wed Mar 25 20:11:23 CDT ...

Re: Feature request: SRT files

1. Please read the amc script manual on how to use custom formats. 2. --conflict index will add .1 .2 etc to the filename to make it unique. If you get CD1/2 then that's not the doing of --conflict index but multi-part movie handling, which is unrelated to --conflict resolution. :idea: Make sure th...

Re: Explanation of --conflict {} settings needed, please

I am not sure the audio language is specified in the file I am downloading.
I am using the AMC script for Plex. When Plex gets the file it modifies the file name to the original title. These are rare cases relative to the majority of my titles.

Sorry, I am sure I am missing some knowledge.

Re: Explanation of --conflict {} settings needed, please

Thanks for that quick response! To accomplish my goal the best option would be to set "--conflict skip" then?

I want to be sure before I head off to sleep and let the script do its work. Hate to wake up to a nasty surprise.
