Force TV / Movie mode when running the AMC script

Post by secs »

Guys I need some very basic help. I have 3 directories. Music, TV and MOVIES. If I run flebot over the lot it does preaty well. I have the ability to run it on each dir seperately.

This is my normal run line filebot -script fn:amc --output "//storage1/localmedia/" --log-file amc.log --action move -non-strict "/storage1/complete/complete/" --def excludeList=amc1.txt --def music=y --def artwork=y --def extras=y


How do I tell it that its running on the MOVIES only, TV only and Music only? I

Yep I have read the scripts and I am missing the obvious. Niteshift tends to kill my brain cells

Regards, P

You can force Movie/TV Show/Anime mode or force ignore files via labels, e.g. label as movie to force TheMovieDB, or tv to force TheTVDB, or anime to force AniDB, or other to ignore all files
e.g.

Code: Select all

--def ut_label=movie

Code: Select all

--def ut_label=tv

Code: Select all

--def ut_label=anime

Code: Select all

--def ut_label=other

I am using

filebot -script fn:amc --output "/media/peter/storage11/localmedia/" --log-file amc.log --def ut_label=other --action move -non-strict "/media/peter/storage11/torrents_from_seedbox/music/" --def music=y --def artwork=y --def extras=y

to try and process music but it finds the directories, shows the music in the log but doesnt process anything. Have I missed an option in the above? The directory contains nothing but music

... or other to ignore all files
Hence, all files are ignored.

A.
Force MOVIE mode if you already know you're processing movies. Hence files will never be mismatched as episodes.

B.
Force SERIES mode if you already know you're processing episodes. Hence files will never be mismatched as movies and always processed with TheTVDB.

C.
Force ANIME mode if you already know you're processing anime episodes. Hence files will never bis mismatched as movies and always processed with AniDB.

D.
Force IGNORE / OTHER mode if you already know that file can't be processed. Hence files will not be processed as movie / series / anime and just be ignored.
