Why is the amc script processing Episode files as Movies?

[scottycope]

What I ultimately want to do is call FB from qBittorrent. However, before I set that up I am trying my hand using test mode. Here is my CLI call:

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:amc --output "Y:/" --action test --conflict auto -non-strict "C:\Users\Scott\Desktop\test movies\Movies" --log-file amc.log --def excludeList=amc.txt --def @"c:\users\scott\desktop\test movies\args.txt"

The values in my args.txt file are simply formatting:

Code: Select all

movieFormat=Y:\Shared Movies\{n0 = n.sortName().replaceAll("'", "").charAt(0); n0.isDigit() ? '#' : n0}\{n} ({y})/{n} ({y}){ext=='srt' ? ".eng" : ''}
seriesFormat=Y:\Shared TV Shows/{n0 = n.sortName().replaceAll("'", "").charAt(0); n0.isDigit() ? '#' : n0}/{n}/{episode.special ? 'Specials' : 'Season '+s.pad(2)}/{n} {episode.special ? 'S00E'+special.pad(2) : s00e00} - {t}{ext=='srt' ? ".eng" : ''}

Nothing super complicated, I don't think. All I want to do is put the movie (Ahh Zombies) in the Movies folder and the tv show (Scooby) in the TV Show folder. I see that there invalid charaters in the looked up Scooby name but am not sure htat is causing my issue. The real issue is the Scooby is not being recognized as a TV show but, instead. Here is the output of my log file when I try to run this:

Code: Select all

Done ヾ(＠⌒ー⌒＠)ノ

Any suggestions on how to correct this is greatly appreciated. I'm sure it's a simple correction but I have not managed to find it in any of the posts / help files / etc. I just need to have FB see Scooby as a TV show, not a movie. However, the input folder can store both movies and tv shows. Help!?!? Thank you!!

Wasting Away (2007) is the correct match for Aaah! Zombies!! (2007) so that was is fine even though it looks wrong on first glance:

You have your episode files in a folder called Movies. This will force Movie Mode. Rename your Movies folder to Media (or anything else not Movies) to let auto-detection do it's job, or use TV Shows as folder name to force Episode Mode.

[scottycope]

OK, this is awesome. It seems kind of foolish now but I had no idea that a folder called Movies would trigger movie mode. Renaming the folder did the trick. Episodes go as TV shows and movies go as movies now. Thank you!

And, yes, I had to look up Wasting Away when I ran the script first but also found that this was the correct match.

Thank you for your quick and excellent response!
