I see. The folder name in the history in FileBot does not match the folder name in Jellyfin because to to ≠ To.


Did you manually change the t to T on the server after organising the files with FileBot? Any idea how the folder name changed at some point?

Could this be an isolated corner case? Have you tried with other newly organised files for good measure? We would typically expect the file paths in the FileBot history to match exactly the file path on the server-side.

Hi rednoah,

I have looked at all movie folder names and all have been capitalised by filebot in the past, could this be the problem?

The lower-case to And How to Reclaim It was generated by FileBot according to the FileBot history. I don't know where the upper-case To And How To Reclaim It come from.

In any case, the post-processing script likely already works you just need to use FileBot to organising files into the Jellyfin structure and then let the post-processing script do it's thing.

You can create a new file name Avatar.mkv and then organise that into your Jellyfin structure, and then see if that works.

Hi rednoah,

I think you have spent to much time on this so lets call it a day.
If you look at some of my old post you will find you created a script to capitalise all folders and files that's where I think it's come from.
I have used filebot to organise my files into jellyfin format?
I will make sure all of my files have correct date creation date then move them out in batches then move them back in then that should sort it

Thanks Again

Stewart

Alright, so in conclusion [Script] Set Jellyfin DateCreated property can be added to the post-process to set the creation date of the Jellyfin library item to the movie release date as files are added to the Jellyfin library. This assumes that FileBot is used to move / rename / organize files into the Jellyfin library.
