Feature Request - Conflict: Delete

Post by seibop »

An addition to the --conflict: Delete.

Similar to Auto: If Filebot determines the new one is better, delete the original and replace. (like it currently does) However, If filebot determines that the new file is inferior to the existing one, it deletes the new one.

Sorry. Support for deleting source files is not planned. However, you could use a custom shell script as Custom Rename Action (assuming that you're on Linux) and then do anything.


:idea: Alternatively, if you're using the amc script, then you can use --def unsorted to move files that weren't processed (e.g. because --conflict auto decided they were not better) to some specified folder. That would make manually or automatically deleting those files trivial in a second step.
:idea: Please read the FAQ and How to Request Help.
