[AMC] How can I do a dry-run without moving any files?

Post by whudgins »

While it may be a super simple script, I am very bad with this type of stuff and it took me many, many hours of research and trial/error.

Using FileBot and qBittorrent, I simply want to copy/extract files once they are finished downloading using the following location and naming method:

Movies - M:/Movies | M:/Movies/Movie Name Here.mkv
TV Shows - M:/TV Shows | M:/TV Shows/Episode Name/S04 E09 - Episode Title Here.mkv

Here is my script. Please let me know if you see any issues, have any concerns for me, see any trouble that may come my way, suggestions, anything at all. I just am second guessing myself with being so new to this. It seems to be working like it should for me, just want to be certain before it's live. Thanks!

filebot -script fn:amc --output "M:" --action duplicate -non-strict --log-file amc.log --def excludeList=amc.txt --def "seriesFormat=M:/TV Shows/{n}/S{s.pad(2)} E{e.pad(2)} - {t}" "movieFormat=M:/Movies/{n}" "ut_dir=%F" "ut_kind=multi" "ut_title=%N" "ut_label=%L"

Just run it with --action test and see what happens.

Also, your formats are quite horrible, but that's your choice. I'd keep the defaults.
:idea: Please read the FAQ and How to Request Help.

The only issue I can see that I am having so far is that I get this message in every movie FileBot tries to process:

Failed to grep IMDbID

EDIT: - Removed my script and log file, I found where you actually answered this somewhere else that was burried deep in Google about how it's just searching for an ID in an .nfo file.
