Multiple subs for same language in separate folder

[Dyolfknip]

I keep running into this case (typically for TV shows) where the subtitles in the download are all stored in a separate SUBS folder, organized thusly:

Code: Select all

\Firefly\Firefly.1x01.Serenity.Pilot.avi
\Firefly\Firefly.1x02.The Train.Job.avi
\Firefly\Subs\Firefly.1x01.Serenity.Pilot\2_English.srt
\Firefly\Subs\Firefly.1x01.Serenity.Pilot\3_English.srt
\Firefly\Subs\Firefly.1x02.The.Train.Job\2_English.srt
\Firefly\Subs\Firefly.1x02.The.Train.Job\3_English.srt

It's pretty good at identifying the subtitle files based on the containing episode-specific directory, but only for the first match. It really can't deal with the multiple files for the same language. It'll look at the leading 3 and assume that's an episode or season number or something. I'm pretty sure I've got a preset written that can ensure the output is unique, but it's gotta correctly match the file first. Help?

It should fundamentally work. I'm using the latest revision and identification works correctly out-of-the-box for this kind of use case:

Code: Select all

$ filebot -rename -r Firefly --db TheTVDB --order DVD --output . --conflict index -non-strict --log INFO --action DUPLICATE
[DUPLICATE] from [Firefly/Subs/Firefly.1x01.Serenity.Pilot/2_English.srt] to [Firefly - 1x01 - Serenity.srt]
[DUPLICATE] from [Firefly/Subs/Firefly.1x02.The.Train.Job/2_English.srt] to [Firefly - 1x02 - The Train Job.srt]
[DUPLICATE] from [Firefly/Subs/Firefly.1x01.Serenity.Pilot/3_English.srt] to [Firefly - 1x01 - Serenity.1.srt]
[DUPLICATE] from [Firefly/Subs/Firefly.1x02.The.Train.Job/3_English.srt] to [Firefly - 1x02 - The Train Job.1.srt]
[DUPLICATE] from [Firefly/Firefly.1x01.Serenity.Pilot.mkv] to [Firefly - 1x01 - Serenity.mkv]
[DUPLICATE] from [Firefly/Firefly.1x02.The Train.Job.mp4] to [Firefly - 1x02 - The Train Job.mp4]

Typical usage with the {plex} format will allow you to have one subtitle per subtitle language / subtitle tag / subtitle extension (i.e. you can have .eng.srt and .eng-forced.srt but not .eng.srt twice) and so alternate subtitles will be ignored, unless you use a custom --format that accounts for that in one way or another:

Code: Select all

$ filebot -rename -r Firefly --db TheTVDB --order DVD --output . --format "{plex}" -non-strict --log INFO --action DUPLICATE
[DUPLICATE] from [Firefly/Subs/Firefly.1x01.Serenity.Pilot/2_English.srt] to [TV Shows/Firefly/Season 01/Firefly - S01E01 - Serenity.eng.srt]
[DUPLICATE] from [Firefly/Subs/Firefly.1x02.The.Train.Job/2_English.srt] to [TV Shows/Firefly/Season 01/Firefly - S01E02 - The Train Job.eng.srt]
Skipped [Firefly/Subs/Firefly.1x01.Serenity.Pilot/3_English.srt] because [TV Shows/Firefly/Season 01/Firefly - S01E01 - Serenity.eng.srt] already exists
Skipped [Firefly/Subs/Firefly.1x02.The.Train.Job/3_English.srt] because [TV Shows/Firefly/Season 01/Firefly - S01E02 - The Train Job.eng.srt] already exists
[DUPLICATE] from [Firefly/Firefly.1x01.Serenity.Pilot.mkv] to [TV Shows/Firefly/Season 01/Firefly - S01E01 - Serenity.mkv]
[DUPLICATE] from [Firefly/Firefly.1x02.The Train.Job.mp4] to [TV Shows/Firefly/Season 01/Firefly - S01E02 - The Train Job.mp4]

Was using the GUI. Looks like it was a version issue. 4.9.2 didn't work, but updating to 4.9.6 fixed it. Thanks!

You can use the {di} duplicate index and {dc} duplicate count bindings to add a numeric index if you have the same match multiple times:

Code: Select all

{ dc > 1 ? '.' + di : null }

EDIT:

FileBot r9240 fixes {di} duplicate index and {dc} duplicate count not working correctly the command-line in some cases.
