The TheTVDB API server-side code was apparently updated and is now broken in some corner cases. Use TheMovieDB/TV instead for the time being, or wait for TheTVDB engineers fix the issue on their end. Looks like the TheTVDB API does not work correctly. FileBot has no way of getting the episode listin...

When I try to rename some ripped DVDs it won't recognize these 2 movies. It recognized many others. :?: Screenshots ? :?: Sample file paths as text ? Please do post screenshots and sample file paths as text so that I can see what you can see. Here's what I can see based on the limited information p...

Thanks, I'll add that to the list of exceptions.

Yes, please read the thread linked above for details. :arrow: You can disable sanity checks by running the following filebot command on the command-line to generate the configuration file: :arrow: You can disable this restriction like so: filebot -script fn:properties --def net.filebot.AniDB.movie=t...

You can do your own pattern replacement, if the built-in helpers don't work for you for one reason or another. e.g. upper-case characters and the beginning and after space: { "we're the world".replaceAll(/(?<=^|\s)\w/){ it.upper() } } EDIT: Thank you for reporting the issue. FileBot r10220...

:?: What does the error message say when it does not work? (you can click on the error message to copy & paste the error message; or copy it from the log later) :idea: FileBot does not know or care about your computer hardware. Each user has its own FileBot application data / settings folder and...

Is this a permanent problem that can not be fixed? It's temporary problem that is caused by TheTVDB API starting to not work where it previously worked. I would expect the problem to go away by itself when TheTVDB engineers fix the issue. The problem with switching to AniDB for example, is that Ani...

FileBot r10218 and higher will try to detect if you're doing a manual lookup, and disable sanity checks if so. That said, processing movies in Episode Mode seems weird to me... $ filebot -list --db AniDB --q 14438 Laid-Back Camp the Movie - 01 - Complete Movie Laid-Back Camp the Movie - Special 1 -...

Anime movies not possible using AniDB

Yes, if you enter the ID manually, then older versions of FileBot would just fetch that "series" and work with the "episode information" received, but newer versions will now check if the "series" at hand is actually a series and fail if not, for consistency: Movie type...

Thanks for the post! Before a real human comes by, please make sure your report has all the following points checked: What are you trying to do achieve? What's not working? What have you tried so far? Include screenshots , logs or filenames (i.e. demonstrate the issue) Include System Information (i....

At the very least you'll want to define a function before you use it. That said, we don't use global functions in any of our examples, so best not to use them. Not all Groovy features make sense for FileBot Format code. You can definitely use local variables though, and the value of a local variable...

AniDB movie selection was never supported.


What is your use case?


Anime movies not possible using AniDB has come up recently. You guys know each other?

Likely duplicate of this : When trying to rename the following shows using TheTVDB Filebot asks to identify the files: My Instant Death Ability Is Overpowered; Sokushi Cheat The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic; Chiyu Mahou no Machigatta Tsukaikata It is able to find the shows using TheMovieDB and Ani...

You'll probably need to call filebot -clear-cache once if you retry with the same ID within the same day after changing the net.filebot.AniDB.movie setting.

Movie type Anime were never supported via search, i.e. search-by-name would never find them. The ID lookup worked unofficially because FileBot just used to use the given ID as-is to fetch the series information / episode list without any additional checks, like with any other AniDB series. That work...

I thought plex doesn't like mixing db sources. I'll try again in a couple of days, see if something gets fixed upstream. Presumably, Plex uses the same TheTVDB API, if you have selected TheTVDB as your preferred database, so if FileBot can't get the episode listing at this time, then there's a very...

Looks like the TheTVDB API does not work correctly. FileBot has no way of getting the episode listing if the API does not respond correctly. There's nothing you can do. :idea: I've created a bug report upstream: https://github.com/thetvdb/v4-api/issues/324 :arrow: I recommend switching to TheMovieDB...

:?: Please post screenshots and sample file paths as text and System Information . :arrow: FileBot asking for things is normal, depending on the files and folder structure at hand. If it's normal in your specific case, that we cannot say without knowing what your specific use case is exactly. Please...

Alright, so the screenshots above suggest that {media.FileSize}/{media.Title}/{audio.Format} work correctly for each file and yield the correct values. So that's the baseline. I tried your format and got this error message right away, and then it started yielding values: No signature of method: net....

Well, I cannot comment on your format code since you did not share your format code. That said, I'd start to debug the issue by using a very simple format, so that we can see the values we're working with. :arrow: e.g. use this format on your Onward (2020) sample file to see what MediaInfo Bindings ...

:?: How do you know that EAC3 / AC3 is or is not correct for the file at hand? Please share the MediaInfo properties for the file at hand so that we can have a look. :idea: If you get different results for MediaInfo Bindings then you likely are testing with different files. Make sure to use Double-C...

If your files have xattr metadata (i.e. processed and tagged by FileBot) then you can do something like this: $ filebot -mediainfo -r /input --format "{ny} | {info.status}" | sort -u Alias (2001) | Ended :idea: The Find missing Episodes script is also somewhat akin to what you're trying to...

The screenshot shows an error message from PayPal. This issue seems to be entirely unrelated to FileBot and Paddle (our payment processor) . PayPal just doesn't like your Credit Card for some reason. PayPal support is who you want to talk to in this regard. The error message does suggest to talk to ...

:?: What does the error message say? A screenshot would allow us to see what you see. :!: Did the same payment method work in the past when you purchased your first 1-year license? (NOTE: purchasing 1-year license for the first year to thoroughly evaluate FileBot before commiting is strongly recomme...
