Possible to use IMDB for movies? What do I do if info.productionCompanies doesn't work?

[AleXSR700]

Hello everyone,
I have been using FileBot 4.8.5 for years although I have not used in in months (Netflix and Prime have taken over mostly). Now I was doing some cleaning and wanted to use filebot to also sort my movies.
Unfortunately TheMovieDB does not seem to have the same level of information (e.g. production companies) as IMDB. So my syntax is not working.

Is there a way to use IMDB instead of MovieDB?

Thank you
Alex

FileBot does not support IMDb. Please use TheMovieDB instead.

If {info.productionCompanies} doesn't work for one movie or another, then please enter the missing information on TheMovieDB so that it'll then work for everyone going forward.

Thank you for your reply. I do not even see the Production Companies on TheMovieDB. I just see that filebot does not find the information.
Example is Suicide Squad: Birds of Prey. "DC Entertainment" does not work as filter.

Production Companies are listed in the Production Information section:
https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/495764 ... nformation

Okay, so I am able to do it using DC Films as production company.

Keywords still does not work.

Also, small bonus question. I am trying to add a "_" after the bitdepth, but if I write it directly after bitdepth it does not work anymore and if I put any symbol infront of the "_" I see the symbol.

Code: Select all

{"$hdr$bitdepth'_'"}

Supposed to result in

HDR10_

but results in

HDR10'_'

What keyword are you checking for? What is the value of {info.keywords} for the movie you're testing with?


Note that we have already confirmed that checking for keywords fundamentally works in your other thread, so you'll want to take that as an example, and confirm again for yourself with your own eyes, and then take it from there for other cases where something doesn't work:

Your code works for my test case:

Code: Select all

'dc extended universe' in info.keywords

Code: Select all

$ filebot -list --q 791373 --db TheMovieDB --format "{ny} | {info.keywords} | {'dc extended universe' in info.keywords}"
Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021) | [superhero, based on comic, superhero team, dc extended universe, superhero teamup] | true

You can write:

Code: Select all

{hdr}{bitdepth}_

Alternatively, if you want to account for {hdr} being undefined and break the entire {...} in that corner case:

Code: Select all

{ hdr + bitdepth + '_' }

Note that {hdr} can yield the value "HDR" or "Dolby Vision" so adding 8 or 10 without space will not look good in the latter case.

Thank you!

Yes, I am hoping to solve the Dolby Vision case using

Code: Select all

({ hdr == 'Dolby Vision' ? {hdr} : { hdr + bitdepth + '_' }}

But I do not have a Dolby Vision file to test it with, so I will have to wait and see if it works

The inner {...} are incorrect because are writing Groovy code, and not delimiting the beginning and the end of a Groovy code snippet, so:

Code: Select all

{ hdr == 'Dolby Vision' ? 'Dolby Vision_' : hdr + bitdepth + '_' }
