AMC - rescan PLEX library section

[ptoshack]

hi,

I have been using FileBot and AMC for quite some time now and have since converted my entire library of TV, movies and music. In fact I have 5 large PLEX libraries.

My question is how do I trigger a rescan of a specific section only?

The manual method from a web browser:

http://192.168.x.xxx:32400/library/sections/1/refresh

or command-line:

.\"Plex Media Scanner.exe" --scan --refresh --section 1


My working script looks like this:

filebot -script fn:amc --output "N:\TV Library" --log-file "N:\TV Library\amc.log" --action move -non-strict "N:\TV Library\Downloads" --def excludeList="N:\TV Library\amc_tv.txt" --def clean=y --def storeReport=y --def plex=192.168.x.xxx:<token>

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Cheers
Paul

Not supported. But a scan for new files shouldn't take more than a few hundred milliseconds even if you have millions of files.

EDIT: you can use the --def exec option though

[ptoshack]

Thanks. I like the --def exec option although it seems to be very particular about spaces in the command that gets executed. I've tried various ways to escape the spaces with no luck. Any suggestions?

The addition of this line in my FileBot script

--def exec="c:\Program Files (x86)\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Media Scanner.exe --scan --refresh --section 1"

gives the following error:

Mind your spaces.

Please read the command-line noob manual:
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1899

[saitoh183]

I would want to use this as well but does filebot have a way to retrieve the path of the show it just moved so i can trigger a partial scan?

ie:

Rename episodes using [TheTVDB]
Auto-detected query: [Blue Bloods]
Fetching episode data for [Blue Bloods]
[MOVE] Rename [P:\Processing\sonarr_tv\blue.bloods.703.hdtv-lol.mkv] to [D:\videos\TV\Blue Bloods\Season 7\Blue Bloods - 7x03 - The Price of Justice.mkv]
Processed 1 files

just grab D:\videos\TV\Blue Bloods\Season 7 so i can do

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Media Scanner.exe" --scan --refresh --section 2 --directory "D:\videos\TV\Blue Bloods\Season 7"

[rednoah]

You can use --def exec for any command:

Code: Select all

--def exec="mycommand \"{folder}\""

If i run the script without

Code: Select all

--def exec='"C:\Program Files (x86)\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Media Scanner.exe" --scan --refresh --section 3 --directory \"{folder}\"'

It works

[rednoah]

Use @files to avoid the intricacies of command-line argument parsing: viewtopic.php?t=3244

[saitoh183]

Using @file like so?

plexscanner.txt

Code: Select all

--def exec='"C:\Program Files (x86)\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Media Scanner.exe" --scan --refresh --section 3 --directory \"{folder}\"'

Full command would be ?

Code: Select all

filebot -script  fn:amc --def seriesFormat="D:/videos/TV/{n}/{'Season '+s}/{n} - {sxe} - {t}" --action test -non-strict $FolderPath --log-file P:/scripts/Filebot.log --def clean=y -no-xattr --log Fine --conflict auto --def ut_label=Series --def exec=@P:/scripts/plexscanner.txt

Maybe i should call a batch file...but again im still stuck with passing the folder path to plexscanner...

[saitoh183]

Well i dont think this will work because it will fail when i have more then one tv show to process since it doesnt launch after each show and only after all items have been processed.

[rednoah]

The whole point of the @file is so that you don't have to command-line escape the arguments... Hence the @file will look like this:

Code: Select all

exec="C:\Program Files (x86)\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Media Scanner.exe" --scan --refresh --section 3 --directory "{folder}"

Usage:

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:sysenv --def @/path/to/my/def.txt

Well i dont think this will work because it will fail when i have more then one tv show to process

Why would you think that? This is wrong. It'll work. Check the logs.

it doesnt launch after each show and only after all items have been processed.

This is correct.

[saitoh183]

So for my purpose it is not a solution because the plex scanner needs to launch for each file cuz of the --directory parameter in the command. Or else it without it, it will scan the entire library

[rednoah]

Use your script to process two different files, and then post the logs here. We'll see what's happening and you can explain how it's different from what you want.

[saitoh183]

Ok,

here is a example of what needs to happen:

Folder A:
Show 1
Show 2

Filebot:
After each file --def exec needs to run

So after Show 1 is processed i would need
C:\Program Files (x86)\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Media Scanner.exe" --scan --refresh --section 3 --directory "D:\Videos\TV\Show1\ Season X"
Then Show 2 is processed by Filebot and then exec runs
C:\Program Files (x86)\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Media Scanner.exe" --scan --refresh --section 3 --directory "D:\Videos\TV\Show2\ Season X"
And so on


If there is only 1 Show to process (all within the same season), then everything will work

But if there are multiple shows or even 1 show but with episodes from different season, the exec will fail because it will only pass the last folder processes to the plexscanner.exe directory parameter.

So we would get: (which would be wrong outcome)
Filebot reports Show 1 processed
Filebot reports Show 2 processed
--exec runs:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Media Scanner.exe" --scan --refresh --section 3 --directory "D:\Videos\TV\Show2\ Season X"


The only way i think i could maybe get around this limitation would be if there was a way to store each folder path into some sort of array after each file is process and then pass that array to my script that i set in the --exec parameter. Then in my script i process each element of the array with a loop....IDK...just thinking out loud..

[rednoah]

PLEASE POST THE COMPLETE LOG

--def exec will execute one command PER FILE which is what you're asking for (though if you were to call the EXACT SAME command multiple times then FileBot will optimize that away) so either it's already working, or there's a bug. Either way, the log will show what's happening.


EDIT:


This is a LOG. It clearly shows what's going on and is thus VERY HELPFUL in helping us understand what's going on.

As we can see, the --def exec command is called once PER FOLDER because the execute template we pass in yields 2 unique commands when applied to the 3 processed files:

Code: Select all

[saitoh183]

I will post a log file once i can get it to actually run my script at the end currently i still have the same error even with the @file command

Thanks for the example but why i said it wouldnt work as i want was because of what you replied to my statement

This is correct.

[rednoah]

You can always wrap the amc script in your own script and then call the amc script folder per folder so exec will be executed after each folder. I don't see the point but you can make your exact use case work if you don't mind a line of bash script (or many lines of PS script ).

[saitoh183]

Seem to be getting a error when it comes to process exec

[saitoh183]

Could it be that Filebot is interpreting the plexscanner parameters as Filebot parameters so it is looking for a --def ?

[rednoah]

Nope, FileBot definitely doesn't have any issues here. You can't use '...' as quotes on Windows, so you're already wrong there. Your @file probably has empty lines as well so you're passing "" (empty string) as argument. Your smart use of --log fine instead of default --log all probably hides important output. Why would you reduce logging when haven't even gotting it working? Oh well...

EDIT: --output is missing as well


Here is the solution. Change that paths, run it, post back the command-line output.

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:amc /path/to/input --output "P:/videos" --action test -non-strict --log-file amc.log -no-xattr --conflict auto --def ut_label=Series clean=y exec=@X:/scanner.cmd

Ok, it seems to work for launching the execute on each file. Now i just need to see if plex is actually getting the command. My plex is in the middle of a refresh so i will see after it is done. I wish i didnt have to use powershell to do my entire script but it is the language i have the most knowledge about and im on windows 8.1...Setting the log to Fine hide the Execute line from the log...this is also a reason why i thought it wasnt working.

Is there a way to pass a variable to the cmd file? I ask because depending on the media being processes the library scan i call needs to point to the proper library section (ie plex library TV shows is section 3, Movies is section 6) i tried something like :

Parameter: seriesFormat = P:/videos/TV/{n}/{'Season '+s}/{n} - {sxe} - {t}
Parameter: clean = y
Parameter: ut_label = Series
Parameter: exec = ""C:\Program Files (x86)\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Media Scanner.exe" --scan --refresh --section %1 --directory "{folder}""
Argument: P:\Processing\sonarr_tv
Argument: C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\4
filebot : File not found: C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\4

Also in the test.cmd i made this change, but not sure if this is what needs to be done in order to get the variable to show up

Code: Select all

""C:\Program Files (x86)\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Media Scanner.exe" --scan --refresh --section %1 --directory "{folder}""

If it cant be done, then i will need to find a way to run it directly from --exec
