Override existing file - different extension

[Achandab]

Is it possible for the override command to overwrite existing file if the extension is different? At the moment when AMC is importing movie file i seem to have duplicates of the files with different extensions

Example

Gladiator\Gladiator.mvk
Gladiator\Gladiator.mp4
Gladiator\Gladiator..avi

I only wish to have one copy, preferably the latest and largest file size. I thought override handled this?

I thought override handled this?

The amc script does not support those kind of "duplicate" checks. Conflict behaviour doesn't come into play if the file path is different.

That might be conceivable as a separate script that detects and delete semantic duplicates.

Ah okay, so override only works if the file extension is the same?

Is this script something you are looking at developing? At the moment im using a file duplicator software to manually remove them each time

I guess this is already half of the solution:

Code: Select all

args.getFiles{ it.isVideo() }.groupBy{ it.metadata }.each{ m, fs ->
   println "$m => $fs.name"
}

Just add a few more lines to select the one you want, and the delete the others.

@see viewtopic.php?f=8&t=3791#p21206

You can play with something like this and see if it works for you:

Code: Select all

def args = '/Users/reinhard/Development/test/OUTPUT' as File

args.getFiles{ it.isVideo() }.groupBy{ it.metadata }.each{ m, fs ->
	if (fs.size() > 1) {
		println m
		fs.toSorted(new VideoQuality()).eachWithIndex{ f, i ->
			if (i == 0) {
				println "[+] 1. $f"
			} else {
				println "[-] ${i+1}. $f"
				// f.delete()
			}
		}
	}
}

Cheers mate, will have a go

Here's the other thread with the same issue: viewtopic.php?t=3791

thanks again!

In case it could be helpful for anybody else, this is a simple post-processing script I am using to delete duplicates, in cases where the --action replace doesn't cut it.

Groovy: Select all

{ source, target, metadata ->
    def fileName = target.nameWithoutExtension
    target.dir.listFiles { file ->
        file != target && file.video && file.nameWithoutExtension == fileName
    }.each { fileToDelete ->
        trash(fileToDelete)
    }
}

This is only for absolute overriding and doesn't do any quality checks whatsoever.

Below is a sample output from using the script.

Console Output: Select all
