Does not rename non mp4 files anymore fetching movies

Post by glenreiff »

Since some days FileBot does not rename .txt and other files in movie mode. I tried different ways but without success. The files which are not renamed are greyed out after fetching:

Episode mode works as aspected:

I double checked all settings three times and I did not change settings anyway before problem occured.

As far as I remember I had same problem in the past and it was resolved by an update.

There is no error message. There is no log entry since Aug 31, 2020:

:?: Please list the full file path for each file.


:idea: As a general rule, FileBot does not process non-media files, except when there's a corresponding primary media file, in which case each non-media file is processed as if it was that primary media file


e.g. secondary non-media files are processed alongside the corresponding primary media file:

Code: Select all

/path/to/Avatar.avi
/path/to/Avatar-poster.jpg
/path/to/Avatar-theme.mp3

:idea: If media files and non-media files are in separate folders, then the non-media files will be ignored, as there won't be a corresponding media file in the same folder.
:idea: Please read the FAQ and How to Request Help.
