Display/Remove Close Captions

[DigidocTN]

I use Filebot to rename my TV and Music collections. For TV, I use:

Format: Select all

{n.upperInitial()} ({y}) 
{s.pad(2)}x{e.pad(2)} {t.upperInitial()} 

{ if (vcf != /HEVC/) ' [NOT HEVC]' }
{
	if (width >= 3840 || height >= 2160) return " [4K]"
	if (width >= 1280 || height >= 720) return " [HD]"
	return " [SD]"
}

This does capitalization, determines the internal encoding, and adds the resolution to the end as either 4K; HD; or SD.

Is is possible, to examine the files for CAPTIONS and add a tag so I know which files I need to remove them from? I detest captions and want to remove them from my Jellyfin playback without needing to remove them file by file. One day, I want to learn how to post-process a remux to remove them permanently. For now, I am content to merely identify the files.

Using my naming, I get the following output:

Format: Select all

Better Call Saul (2015) 01x01 Uno [HD].mkv
Better Call Saul (2015) 01x02 Mijo [HD].mkv
Better Call Saul (2015) 01x03 Nacho [HD].mkv
Better Call Saul (2015) 01x04 Hero [HD].mkv
Better Call Saul (2015) 01x05 Alpine Shepherd Boy [HD].mkv
Better Call Saul (2015) 01x06 Five-O [HD].mkv
Better Call Saul (2015) 01x07 Bingo [HD].mkv
Better Call Saul (2015) 01x08 RICO [HD].mkv
Better Call Saul (2015) 01x09 Pimento [HD].mkv
Better Call Saul (2015) 01x10 Marco [HD].mkv

This what I want, except to add [CC2] to indicate there are 2 close caption tracks inside the file.

Can you share the MediaInfo table for one of these files you want to tag with CC2?


In general, you can do something like this to check the number of subtitle tracks and then add a CC2 / CC3 / CC4 / etc marker accordingly:

Format: Select all

{
	def cc = text.size()
	if (cc >= 2) return " [CC$cc]"
}

Forgive me, I have mild dementia. I found the mediainfo table, but I see no way to capture it for here. I do see the field I want is [textLanguages] and the file sample has [zh, en] as the value. (zh=Chinese, en=English). Another sample where I have stripped the CC, has nothing in this field.

IF [textLanguages] is not equal to [null] then display {HasCC} at the end of my file name? Thanks.

You can click on the Copy to Clipboard button and then paste the content via CTRL+V here in the forums.

Open FileBot ➔ Edit Format ➔ Change Sample ➔ Select Media File ➔ Open MediaInfo ➔ Copy to Clipboard





Does this code work for your files? If this code doesn't do exactly what you want already, how is what you want different?

e.g. check number of subtitle streams:

Format: Select all

{
	def cc = text.size()
	if (cc >= 2) return " [CC$cc]"
}

e.g. just check if textLanguages is defined at all:

Format: Select all

{
	if (textLanguages) " {HasCC}"
}
