Renaming 3D titles

[Achandab]

I have noticed if i have a movie and then download the 3d version it will ignore/delete the movie because it already exists. Is there a way we can have filebot detect it's the 3D version from the title and then place under the same directory with a "3D" extension?

Sure, as long as your format evaluates to a different file path.

this is my current format

filebot -script fn:amc "/volumeUSB1/usbshare/Completed Downloads" -non-strict --output "/volume1/Media" --def subtitles=en music=y clean=y --action move --conflict skip

all movies and tv shows are going directly to my /volume/media" folder

for example:
if i download "cars_1080p_yifi" it will rename to "cars 20xx" and move to "/volume1/Media/movies"
if i download "cars_1080p_3d_yifi" it will rename to "cars 20xx" and nd move to "/volume1/Media/movies" and overwrite the current file there

my work around at the moment is prior to the AMC script running i will go to the movie file and add "2D" and the end so it does not overwrite the file. After this i will have to files in the same location, one with "2D" at the end.

You will need to pass in custom formats. Read the Change how files will be organized and renamed section.

Thanks mate. Looks like a handful, i'll have a crack at it and see how i go!

Just use the Format Editor in the GUI to prototype your format, and then add what you came up with that as parameter to your command-line call. You'll want to use the @file syntax, so you can edit your formats in an external text file.

Is there a Format Editor or GUI for Synology??

[rednoah]

Of course not! But whatever computer you're using to control your Synology device, I bet it'll run FileBot (GUI) just fine.
