How can I stop this from happening?

This was a really bad match.

What's the command?

Are you perhaps somehow forcing FileBot to interprete these episode files as movies?

How would you want these files to be processed? Does TheMovieDB even have Featurettes in it's database?

If it's a TV Show special episode, and if it can be matched by episode title, then forcing TV mode (e.g. TheTVDB or TheMovieDB::TV) might do the trick.

You need to tell Filebot the name of the show:
e.g. put file in "Star Wars - The Clone Wars" folder
or

Code: Select all

filebot -rename -non-strict --db TheMovieDB::TV --format "{plex}" --action test --q "Star Wars - The Clone Wars" "D:\temp\Magic of the Holocton Episodes.mp4"

test with

Code: Select all

filebot -list --q "Star Wars - The Clone Wars" --db TheMovieDB::TV --filter "n == /Magic of the Holocton Episodes/"

or

Code: Select all

filebot -list --q "Star Wars - The Clone Wars" --db TheMovieDB::TV --filter "t == /Magic of the Holocton Episodes/"

{plex} =
TV Shows/Star Wars - The Clone Wars/Specials/Star Wars - The Clone Wars - S00E104 - Magic of the Holocton Episodes

Hm, problem is I'm using amc here so it's automatically seeing these as movies rather than specials.

[rednoah]

Sorry, the amc script has no reasonable way of identifying these files as Star Wars - The Clone Wars Special Episodes. You could force TV mode, but it'd still would be able to guess Star Wars - The Clone Wars based on the file path.

I'd do something like --def ignore= Featurettes to just ignore all of them, and the process them manually.
