scripting help needed

[srgsng25]

first off please bare with me as i am clueless unless it involves cut and paste for coding. but i am fast at picking stuff up

i run a huge media server we are using the fallowing to achieve Utorrent at our downloader and Media Center Master as our Metadate processing engine what we are trying to achieve is a automated solution though MCM post processing to move download and organize them via there genres i can do this if i use filebot as a go between before metadata processing

normally the process is

download - move files to temporary location - final move with metadata precess to New Movies or TV series name

Our Goal is to Download movie/TV series - move to temp location- then filebot scrip to appropriate genera folder

in filebot we can do this by using this scrip in our file format (X:\media Location\ /{genres[0]}/{n} ({y})/{n} ({y}){" CD$pi"}

thank-you for any help

So what is your question?

What is it that you can't do with the AMC script already?

There's plenty of docs on how to do the commandline call. I'm guessing you wanna look at the standalone usage and how to pass in your own series/movie formats.

i can't get it to run for some reason i get no windows i am not sure if its the MCM that is moving the files to soon for the script to run or what i would prefer to have a scrip i can run form the command prompt

Erm... Yes. What windows? This is a cmdline script.

Did you watch the video tutorial? It's right next to where it says Standalone Usage that I asked you to check.

i have the cmd lin scrip working but need to make a minor change and i am not understanding what i need to change

here is what i have so far

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:amc "I:\files" --output "F:\Videos" --action copy -non-strict

can i use this part

Code: Select all

{genres[0]}/{n} ({y})/{n} ({y})

this is what i use in the GUI for moving to Genres folders right now it moves everthing to a

Code: Select all

f:\videos\movies\"file name"

Back to the original post. I said read up on how to pass in your own series/movie formats.

You can find the all the docs you need here:

You just need to read it. The section you're looking for is called Change how files will be organized and renamed.
