FileBot

I tried to find answers to these questions on the boards but had no luck. Sorry if this has been asked and answered. I set up Filebot to replace the EG+SCRU+theRenamer function I was using and so far it is much simpler and overall better. I have a few modification questions that I have been unable to figure out on my own.

1. I have two different directories for movies and TV shows (E:/Movies and F:/TV Shows). How do I set these different output paths? I read somewhere that I can set up absolute paths for each but I'm not sure how to do this.

2. Can I set the script to ignore certain uTorrent labels? (I.e. music which I handle separately? Or will it automatically ignore music?). Also on this note what happens when I download something that is neither a movie nor a tv show (a program for example? I assume the process just fails and closes?)

3. I thought I could turnoff subtitle download by changing def:subtitles=y to ...=n but it seems to still download a subtitles file (or at least I assume that's what the .srt file is). What am I doing wrong here? Additionally, would it be possible to only download subtitles for Movies?

Thanks so much!

I'm assuming you're talking about fn:utorrent-postprocess.

1. For that you'll need to override the format for each category. Check the "Customize Paths" section and define your own path/naming scheme.

2. This is already in there. By default it'll ignore anything with these tags: music, audio, ebook, ..., see code for details.

You you need more customized behaviour you can modify this function: 3. It's off by default if you don't set --def subtitles=y. Also --def subtitles=n works. If you just want movies you'll have to modify the script a tiny little bit.

Thanks for the speedy response! Sorry forgot to mention this was for uTorrent postprocess.

I will fiddle with the customize paths item. I assume setting --def "seriesFormat=F:/TV Shows/{n}/{fn}" ""movieFormat=E:/Movies/{n} {y}/{fn}" will do the trick but I'll try it out.

I tried out a few music torrents and the process didn't start. Perfect!

I removed the def subtitles altogether and it worked. Modifying the script for movies only subtitles is a project for another day.

Thanks again. Love the program. Keep up the great work!

Not quite:
F:/TV Shows/{n}/{fn} => {fn} means original filename so you might get something like F:/TV Shows/The IT Crowd/1e06-Aunt Irma Visits.mkv

PS: Here's the current default formats from the script:

Came back to ask exactly that question haha. Got it set up exactly how I want it now. Thanks again.

I can't believe how much more seamlessly this works as compared to what I was doing before. Now I just need to setup the vbscript to prevent a command window opening and it will be perfect.

Sent a small donation since this software is definitely worth paying for. Keep it up rednoah!

Appreciated! You're the first person to use my Donate button in the forums!

Im doing this in utorrent.

filebot -script fn:utorrent-postprocess --output "E:/torrents" --action copy --conflict override -non-strict --def subtitles=y artwork=n "ut_dir=%D" "ut_file=%F" "ut_kind=%K" "ut_title=%N" "ut_label=%L" "ut_state=%S" --def "seriesFormat=C:/TV/{n}/{fn}" ""movieFormat=E:/{n} {y}/{fn}"

cmd output is:



but nothing is happening.. files is still in default folder folder

You didn't pass in the movieFormat parameter correctly. Messed up the quotes somewhere.

oh one / to few

Re: 2
The next version of FileBot will come with basic support for processing music and it'll become part of the utorrent-script by default as well.
