FileBot won't rename files in UBUNTU

Post by JasonBeveridge »

I bought and installed FileBot via Ubuntu Software Centre but I can't get it to do anything. I am trying to rename all my movies for XBMC so the scrapers work properly. They are in iso format. When I drag the files into the Original files list and select one of the movie modes nothing happens.

What exactly is happening? Is it not finding matches? Or it looks like everything is recognized correctly but when you click Rename it doesn't work?

Try running from Terminal and see if you get any output:

Code: Select all

/opt/filebot/bin/filebot.sh
I've just tried here on 64-bit Ubuntu 12.10 and it works fine. Though there my be issues on Kubuntu or systems where GTK/Gnome is not installed.

Make sure you got Java 7 installed and working:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre
sudo apt-get install gvfs
sudo apt-get install -f
EDIT: I guess I should have read that more clearly. It's all .ISO files? Well, not supported right now. I'd usually just extract the .ISO images so you get nice <Movie>/VIDEO_TS/** structure. FileBot will handle those. And via Analyze->Extract you can batch-extract all those .ISO files.

I'll add that for next release anyway. Treat ISO as any other kinda video type.

.ISO support added to Movie Mode with r1524

You can try it right now by grabbing the latest rev from here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/filebot ... ebot/HEAD/

And replacing /opt/filebot/FileBot.jar with with the latest HEAD jar.
