Wrong Movie Names

[Misinthe]

Good afternoon everyone,

I'm a long time user, first time poster, I've never really had an issue with FileBot before, I usually use it for Shows but I want to rename my Movie library, I'm having an issue where it's not finding the right Movies. Right now I am using the Fetch Data button and selecting TheMovieDB, is there a way to manually search for movies like with the Episode tab? Thanks for the help!

Please paste file paths as text so that we can reproduce the problem:

• Include file paths as text when reporting mismatches (press F7 to copy debug information)

You can manually match movies. Please read FAQ #2 and Manual Matching for details:

Q: How do I fix misidentified files?
If series / movie auto-detection does not work, then you can use SHIFT-CLICK <database> to force manual input and selection of the series or movie. You can manually fix an individual match via Double-Click ➔ Edit Match.

Thank you for that, here is the information from the mismatches, this is just one example, I can get you many more.
02. Harry Potter And The Chamber of Secrets\Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets 2002 1080p x265.mkv {"@type":"Movie","year":2004,"imdbId":388362,"tmdbId":10980,"language":"en-US","id":10980,"name":"Scratch: The New Sound of Terror","aliasNames":["Ratten 2 - Sie kommen wieder!"]}

Thank you! I can at least match them manually now while we figure out what's going on.

Here's another example, all the James Bond movies come out with the same "Kickboxer" result.

Code: Select all

In Work\(1981).For.Your.Eyes.Only\For.Your.Eyes.Only.(1981).mkv	{"@type":"Movie","year":1989,"imdbId":97659,"tmdbId":10222,"language":"en-US","id":10222,"name":"Kickboxer","aliasNames":[]}

Here's what I get:

Console Output: Select all

$ filebot -rename -r "In Work" --output . --format "{plex.id}" --db TheMovieDB --action TEST --log INFO
[TEST] from [In Work/(1981).For.Your.Eyes.Only/For.Your.Eyes.Only.(1981).mp4] to [Movies/For Your Eyes Only (1981) {tmdb-699}/For Your Eyes Only (1981).mp4]

If you get different results, then I would run some trial & error tests with newly created folders and empty files, see if that works, then narrow down why the original file paths don't work. A typical reason would be lying *.nfo files that were accidentally left behind in the parent folder.

Thanks! I guess it was reading the nfo files with the metadata before I set it right. Once I delete all the files and just left the media files it finds them no problem. I appreciate your help!
