Setting Aired / Release Date from Command line

Post by Pinhead »

Hi All

I used both these lines via Mac Terminal

filebot -script fn:amc "/Users/MACOSX/TempPath" --output /Volumes/Movies --def movieFormat="/Volumes/Movies/{ ~plex.id }" --def movieDB=TheMovieDB --action move --conflict skip -non-strict --log-file amc.log --def excludeList=amc.txt --def clean=y

filebot -script fn:amc "/Users/MACOSX/TempPath" --output /Volumes/TV --def seriesFormat="/Volumes/TV/{ ~plex.id }" --def seriesDB=TheMovieDB::TV --action move --conflict skip -non-strict --log-file amc.log --def excludeList=amc.txt --def clean=y

they have been serving me very well..... but last week I used the GUI for some reason and renamed a Movie and I noticed that it set the release date, I then tested the GUI on a TV show, and it too changed the date to aired/release date

so after browsing the scripts I noticed the "--order Airdate" but it didn't work, so I thought this was a SORT command.........

is there a way to use command line to add to my script to change the dates to aired / release dates. ???

many thanks

:?: Did you enable any post processing actions in the GUI?

e.g. Set creation date

I apologise yes "set creation date" -

many thanks - did a lot of searches, but didn't try post-processing..... sorry

so I would just add the ---apply date in the line. :) :)
