Does the script scrape imdb and tvdb by default?

[Perry789]

Hi,

Few quick questions about the AMC script if anyone can help.

Does the script scrape imdb and tvdb by default? - Can this be modified to use both if not?
Can it be modified to not scrape at all and just reformat the folders/files in plex friendly format then move into relevant TV Shows or Movies folder?
Can it be configured to send a email notifications only when files are left unsorted?

1.
The amc script uses TheTVDB and TheMovieDB. FileBot does not support IMDb at all.


2.
You can generic file mode to "reformat" files paths:
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2072

However, that means you won't have any information other than {fn} in your format, so bindings like {plex} (that require movie / episode information) won't work.

If you want to organize your files for Plex, then you need to match each file with the corresponding database entry, so that you can then use movie / episodes bindings such {n} {y} or {s00e00} or just {plex} in your format.


3.
The amc script has email notifications about what files have been renamed, including the ones renamed with --def unsorted=y behaviour. The specific email behaviour you want is not supported.

Thanks for the reply.
I only ask as I had some files renamed and moved incorrectly, Blue Planet 2 was renamed using the Blue Planet (1986) along with all episodes, is there anyway to help stop this?

That seems like a completely different question from the OP.


1.
There are many ways to make things work better, depending on the situation. The --filter option is explained in the Advanced Fine-Tuning section and might be a good solution here:
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2127


2.
What command are you using anyway? What options? What exactly does the log say?


3.
This test tells us that "Blue Planet 2" is actually called "Blue Planet II" and unfortunately FileBot does not have implicit understanding of roman numerals:

Code: Select all

$ filebot -rename *.mkv -non-strict --action TEST
Rename episodes using [TheTVDB]
Auto-detected query: [Blue Planet, blue planet 2]
Fetching episode data for [The Blue Planet]
Fetching episode data for [Blue Planet II]
Fetching episode data for [Planet Earth II]
Fetching episode data for [Expedition Blue Planet]
Resource not found: https://api.thetvdb.com/search/series?name=blue+planet+2
[TEST] from [Blue Planet 2 - 1x01.mkv] to [The Blue Planet - 1x01 - Introduction.mkv]
Processed 1 files

It'll work most of the time, because usually there'd be an official alias, so that both "Star Wars 3" and "Star Wars III" would both be in the database, except that's not the case in this corner case.

A possible solution might be to give FileBot a hint, via the --filter option, to consider only episodes / shows aired after 2010:

Code: Select all

$ filebot -rename *.mkv -non-strict --action TEST --log INFO --filter 'y > 2010'
[TEST] from [Blue Planet 2 - 1x01.mkv] to [Blue Planet II - 1x01 - One Ocean.mkv]

If you tell FileBot to only consider episodes / shows aired after 2010 and then process episodes before 2010, it will end badly. The --filter option is a double-edged sword that you'll want to use wisely.

Sort of

Here's my command:

Code: Select all

cmd /c START /MIN cmd /c filebot -script fn:amc --output "E:/Media" --action move --conflict skip -non-strict --log-file amc.log --def unsorted=y music=y artwork=y "ut_dir=%F" "ut_kind=multi" "ut_title=%N" "ut_label=%L" --def deleteAfterExtract=y --def clean=y

Here's the log:

That's why I asked about the non scrape option, so I could just clean up file names then move them to the correct folder, but then I suppose it wouldn't know if its a movie of tv show. (Oh and 1981 was what it named them lol)

[rednoah]

1.
You could reformat those filenames, because matching all the components from BBC.Blue.Planet.II.1of7.One.Ocean.1080p.HDTV.x265.AAC.MVGroup.org.mkv would be fairly easy, BUT it would still require you to write all the regular expressions required to match each component, and then produce the new filename based on the old filename. Naturally, that's a one-off task you'd do in the GUI, and not something the amc script does.


2.
There's no automated solution, and the problem isn't just that it's badly named episode files, it's that the amc script doesn't even recognize them as episode files in the first place, and then processes them as movies. You can use --def ut_label=TV to force TV mode, but then it would still not work as explained in (3.) in my previous post. In this case, your only option is to add both --def ut_label=TV to force TV mode and --filter to exclude other similarly named TV shows.

Thanks for the help, some useful tips here.

Does the "ut_title=%N" help with the scraping at all, as I could change any II to 2 that may cause issues while the torrent is downloading. (as the AMC script run on completion)

[rednoah]

--def "ut_title=%N" isn't used at all for matching. Only the file name matters.

However, you can access your --def name=values in your --filter expression and so a possible solution might look something like this:

Code: Select all

$ filebot -rename *.mkv -non-strict --action TEST --filter 'n == defines.ut_title' --def ut_title="Blue Planet II"

Hi rednoah,

I seem to be having a strange thing happen when the command is run by Utorrent.

Command:

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:amc --output "E:/Media" --action move --conflict skip -non-strict --log-file amc.log --def unsorted=y music=y artwork=y "ut_dir=%F" "ut_kind=multi" "ut_title=%N" "ut_label=%L" --def deleteAfterExtract=y --def clean=y --def plex=localhost:dPpVQckuSA47HiSGTRA6

I know this is an ISO (using for testing) but its looking at the C:\Windows\System32 folder, I guess this is because it is where CMD is located, but the ISO does not download there.
The download directory for Utorrent is set to: E:\Downloads

How can I stop it looking in the incorrect folder?

[rednoah]

Is this question related to the original post or thread title?

--def ut_dir should be an absolute path. What torrent client / version are you using? Are you using utorrent? Why are you using the qBT command template and not the utorrent command template?


If you're using utorrent, then please use the utorrent command template from the amc script manual.


uTorrent:

Code: Select all

--def "ut_state=%S" "ut_title=%N" "ut_kind=%K" "ut_file=%F" "ut_dir=%D"

qBitTorrent:

Code: Select all

--def "ut_dir=%F" "ut_kind=multi" "ut_title=%N" "ut_label=%L"
