Why doesnt it work?

[torres3490]

I new to this and would love everything to work on Auto...I found this on google and Man have I tried so hard to get this to work..
3hrs have passed and I got as far as the script renaming my file and moving it but to the default expression.

Heres how I have it typed up

filebot -script fn:amc --output "I:\Hi quality" --action copy -non-strict "I:\Yify" --conflict auto --def excludeList
--def movieFormat="{n} ({y}) {vf} {channels} {vc} /{n} ({y}) {vf} {channels} [{genres[0]}, rating {rating}]"
--def subtitles=en

Sorry if it looks funky, but like I mentioned, I dont know what Im doing, some1 please help!

I want to rename my movies to this expression
{n} ({y}) {vf} {channels} {vc} /{n} ({y}) {vf} {channels} [{genres[0]}, rating {rating}]

and moved to another folder and delete the remaining ( folder)
I don t receive an error, it just doesn't rename it to the above expression

Logs? Screenshots? sysinfo output? Anything that would indicate why it doesn't work?

If you need help, providing minimum information would be helpful to the people who are willing to help you out.

When you run the command you already have, what does the command-line output say?

Just so we're on the same page, this is what the command-line looks like:

Results
I'm running this from a text file that I changed to a .bat

[torres3490]

Why do I feel like using .bat isn't the correct way to run this script???

[torres3490]

OK OK, great news
I got it to work...
heres my script

filebot -script fn:amc --output "H:\Movies/" --def movieFormat="{n} ({y}) {vf} {channels} {vc} /{n} ({y}) {vf} {channels} [{genres[0]}, rating {rating}]" --def artwork=y --def subtitles=en --action move -non-strict "I:\Yify" --log-file amc.log --def excludeList=amc.txt --def clean=y
--def movieFormat="{n} ({y}) {vf} {channels} {vc} /{n} ({y}) {vf} {channels} [{genres[0]}, rating {rating}]"

thanks for trying to help me Noah

Normally, you'd open a CMD window and then run some commands, or a .bat file you're working on. Double-clicking .bat scripts is for running scripts you already know are working, but it's a pretty bad idea for development.
