2 Questions - Simple replace, and {minutes} not working

[dipstick]

Question #1:
I guess I don't understand the syntax of replaceAll. I'm trying to do a simple replace. For example, I want to replace "Science Fiction" with "Sci-Fi".

According to this page, https://www.filebot.net/naming.html, this is the proper syntax:
String.replaceAll(pattern, replacement)

So shouldn't my expression look like this?:
{genres.replaceAll(Science Fiction, Sci-Fi)}

I've also tried this (due to examples I've seen):
{genres.replaceAll(/Science Fiction/, /Sci-Fi/)}
and this:
{genres.replaceAll(/[Science Fiction]/, "Sci-Fi")}
and this:
{genres.replaceAll("Science Fiction", "Sci-Fi")}

The only thing that happens is that genres are completely removed during rename. If I use {genres} by itself, it works perfectly.

Using this expression:
{ny} {minutes} {certification} {rating} {genres.replaceAll(/Science Fiction/, "Sci-Fi")}
Before:
Spaceballs - BDrip multisub x264 bluray (1987)
After:
Spaceballs (1987) PG 6.8

Question #2:
Where are my minutes? {hours} does the same thing. They're just gone.

I've tried this with multiple files. Please excuse my lack of knowledge. I really did search before posting, only to get more confused. Thank you for your help.

1.
{genres} is a List[String] object, so...

Option A: Convert to String so you can call String.replace():

Code: Select all

{genres.toString().replace('Science-Fiction', 'Sci-Fi')}

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/docs/a ... rSequence-

Option B: Call String.replace() on each String element in the List:

Code: Select all

{genres*.replace('Science Fiction', 'Sci-Fi')}

http://docs.groovy-lang.org/next/html/d ... otoperator



2.
{minutes} and {hours} both work. They're based on the same source data, so they'll both work, if one of them can work:

If you have trouble with MediaInfo bindings, call filebot -script fn:sysinfo and check if MediaInfo works (and post the output here as well).



Are you using the GUI Format Editor? You'll want to use the GUI Format Editor because it'll give you warning messages and tell you what's not working.



EDIT:

We've been here before. I forgot too.

For question #1, thank you. Of course. Works perfectly now.

For question #2, I don't know how to do what you ask, but when I open MediaInfo in Movie Bindings (for a particular movie), I get this message: "unable to load native library MediaInfo.dll...".

f5, then f5 again produces this info:

Code: Select all

I hope that helps you help me. Any thoughts? Or how exactly do I "call filebot -script fn:sysinfo and check if MediaInfo works"?

I'm sorry that I forgot about my "replace" issue from a couple years ago, or so. I reinstalled my operating system, and it's obviously been awhile since I've worked with Filebot.

And yes, I'm using the GUI Format Editor.

Some kind of compatibility / setup issue.

The easiest solution is to just used the latest and greatest portable which is self-contained and thus can't have these kinds of compatibility issues anymore:

Thank you for your help and for responding so quickly. I will buy the latest version and see if that solves the issue. I was a little disappointed when I found out Filebot was no longer free with the option to donate, but I had no right. I'm only beginning to scratch the surface, but it's obvious that it's such a great tool. The developer deserves a little something for his effort, time and expense.

You can test and evaluate newer versions without a license, so you can check if MediaInfo is gonna work before making a purchase.
