Filebot Stopped Working

[alexander_q]

I recently installed python 2.x (for the sake of PlexPy) on top of python 3.x, so it's possible that's causing some sort of problem, though cmd still reports 3.6.3.

Command:

Code: Select all

"Q:/utorrent-postprocess.pyw" "%L" "" "%N" "multi" "" "%F"

Script:

Code: Select all

# Run Program: 
# "C:\path\to\utorrent-postprocess.pyw" "%L" "%S" "%N" "%K" "%F" "%D"
#
# Test with Console:
# python "C:\path\to\utorrent-postprocess.pyw" "Movie" "5" "Avatar" "multi" "" "X:\Files\Avatar"


import sys
import subprocess


# configuration
output = 'Q:/'


# custom formats (use / instead of \ as directory separator)
movieFormat  = "Q:/_Movies/{n} ({y})/{fn}"
seriesFormat = "Q:/_TV Shows/{n}/{'Season '+s}/{fn}"
animeFormat  = '''{plex}'''
musicFormat  = '''{plex}'''


# required args
label, state, title, kind, file, directory = sys.argv[1:7]


command = [
	'filebot', '-script', 'fn:amc',
	'--output', output,
	'--action', 'hardlink',
	'--conflict', 'override',
	'-non-strict',
	'--log-file', output + 'amc.log',
	'--def',
		'unsorted=y',
		'music=n',
		'artwork=n',
		'movieFormat='  + movieFormat,
		'seriesFormat=' + seriesFormat,
		'animeFormat='  + animeFormat,
		'musicFormat='  + musicFormat,
		'ut_label=' + label,
		'ut_state=' + state,
		'ut_title=' + title,
		'ut_kind='  + kind,
		'ut_file='  + file,
		'ut_dir='   + directory
]


# execute command only for certain conditions (disabled by default)
'''
if state not in ['5', '11']:
	print('Illegal state: %s' % state)
	sys.exit(0)
'''


# execute command (and hide cmd window)
subprocess.run(command, creationflags=0x08000000)

Done ?(?????)?

Filebot worked as expected until today. Now, the files are not copied. There are no entries of any kind in amc.log. There is no indication the script has been run. In previous install of windows, had PlexPy and filebot amc both working, though I don't remember the python setup.

The sysinfo output shows that FileBot works. The next step would be to check if utorrent-postprocess.pyw works or not.

utorrent-postprocess.pyw does require the latest version of Python, so if this script is executed with Python 2.* then it will fail.

If you just call the pyw script, then it depends what python is associated pyw, so it's best to call it with a specific python executable so you know exactly what python executable is executing the utorrent-postprocess script:

Code: Select all

"C:\path\to\python3.exe" "C:\path\to\utorrent-postprocess.pyw" "Movie" "5" "Avatar" "multi" "" "X:\Files\Avatar"

Could I do, for example:

Code: Select all

"C:\path\to\python3.exe" "C:\path\to\utorrent-postprocess.pyw" "%L" "" "%N" "multi" "" "%F"

Directly from the torrent program?

EDIT: Nope, apparently that doesn't work either. Still no entry in amc.log. I pointed to "pythonw.exe" not "python.exe", what's the difference?

[rednoah]

Yes, that'll work. But there may be other unrelated issues. Best to use CMD to make a few calls for testing and so that you can see the console output.

pythonw.exe is the GUI executable, which means you won't get a CMD window, and you won't get console output if something is not working, so for debugging you want to use python.exe so you can see what you're doing.
