Filebot and Plex: Genre mismatches

Post by fxgopher »

Hi everyone.

I've got filebot running well, thanks to help I received here, but I've got a problem, and I really don't know how to solve it.

When I use filebot it uses TMDB, for my genres.

So for Example:
Stealth (2005)
Genre: [Action].

But when I put it into Plex and library called "Action", Stealth suddenly ends up with

Stealth (2005)
Genre: [Action] [Adventure] [Scifi] [Thriller]


How do I get Filebot to use the same set of genres as Plex is using. It's puzzling me
Thanks
Frank

Use OMDb

Code: Select all

{omdb.genres}
but it's not updated, and can give "null"
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0382992/

so better use

Code: Select all

{any{omdb.genres}{genres}}
sample
[Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi, Thriller]
