[amc] Priority different filebot agents

Post by jesulito »

Hi there!

I found this guide:
viewtopic.php?t=12306
It says that Filebot uses TheMovieDB, TheTVDB, and AniDB.
The point is that to set the name of the series or movie using Filebot Node, I can only see what agent it is using when the renaming task is performed.
Because for example, for movies always use TheMovieDB, however for series use TVDB.

If I only want it to use for example only TheMovieBD, with the command that comes in the guide would it only use that one? What priority does Filebot have to choose one agent or another?

Thanks!

You can use the --def ut_label=Movie parameter to force Movie Mode:

Code: Select all

--def ut_label=Movie

Alternatively, standard folder names such as Movies / TV Shows / Anime may also be used to force a specific mode.


:idea: In FileBot Node, the Input Type field maps to the --def ut_label parameter value.


:!: Note that --db TheMovieDB and --db TheMovieDB::TV are conceptually completely different. The first one forces Movie Mode. The second one forces Episode Mode.

A last thing, what is the difference between Movie Mode and Episode Mode?

Movie Mode will allow you to match movie files (e.g. Avatar.2009) to the correct Movie object. Episode Mode will allow you to match episode files (e.g. Alias.1x01) to the correct Episode object. So the mode you choose must match the kind of files you're processing.
