1) Attempting to get it to automatically rename movie folder and movie file inside of filebot-in/Movies and then move to filebot-out/Movies folder. It's renaming the folder and movie file as well as successfully moving them, however, it's deleting all files in the original folder, instead of moving all files (nfo, jpg's) into movie folder inside of filebot-out/Movies. So the newly renamed movie folder inside of filebot-out/Movies only has the movie file. Note, that I don't want the original folder and contents deleted.
Just before posting here, I discovered this old post on the topic. However, since it's 14-years old I'm lead to believe it's outdated, so I did not review or try it.

2) It is also not using a custom preset flagged as default. To set as default I opened the edit "Movies" preset I created, then opened the format editor and selected "use format".
MY ATTEMPTS:
I worked with Chatgpt for hours trying various code in "Automated Media Center: Custom Options:". Here are a few we tried:
--def movieFormat="{ny} ({y})/{ny} ({y})" --def clean=n --apply import
--def movieFormat="{ny} ({y})/{ny} ({y})" --def clean=n --def subtitles=en --def exts="srt|jpg|nfo"
--def movieFormat="{ny} ({y})/{ny} ({y})" --def clean=n --def subtitles=en --apply import
--def movieFormat="{ny} ({y})/{ny} ({y})" --def clean=n --def subtitles=en --def artwork=y --def exts="srt|jpg|nfo"
ChatGPT also provided various User Bash Scripts. Here's the last one, but no luck:
Code: Select all

done
If you're using docker then you need to make sure that you have a single volume mount that contains

The 
tl;dr set Automated Media Center: Custom Options to the following options, to make filebot move along companion files and not clean left-behind files afterwards:
