Unsorted Feature Request

Post by seibop »

Not sure where this should be posted... Searched but didn't really see anything on this specific issue.

But when using AMC, and you say use "unsorted=y" the program send duplicates or unsorted files to the "unsorted" directory on the target.

I would *LOVE* to be able to set "unsorted=y" with some type of "UnsortedDirectory=/some/other/path"

Additionally, when using unsorted=y, I've noticed that duplicates go into the unsorted directory. Such as

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:amc --output "z:\media"  --action copy --conflict auto -non-strict --log-file amcmovie.log  --def excludeList=amcmovie.txt  --def minFileSize=10 --def minLengthMS=10 --lang english --def unsorted=y extra=y artwork=y music=n ut_label=movie   d:\New
This does a great job at sorting, but I end up with duplicate movies placed in the unsorted directory. Am I just lacking an understanding of the proper actions? Honestly I'd love duplicates to just not be processed at all, vs placed in the unsorted directory.

The destination path is up to your format. The --def unsortedFormat can be used to define the output path for unsorted files.

e.g. the unsortedFormat will default to Unsorted/{f.structurePathTail} if not specified otherwise:

Code: Select all

--def unsortedFormat="Unsorted/{f.structurePathTail}"

That is the default behaviour if --def unsorted is left unspecified, or explicitly disabled:

Code: Select all

--def unsorted=n
