Hire Request: Anime Folder Not Copying/renaming file proprly

[wreid23]

Hello all,

I'm new around here but I require a lil bit of help and saw that you guys are pretty friendly here.

So basically I started dabbling in xbmc and got into the whole automating utorrent downloads and renaming files automatically.

I had no trouble setting up the automated media center to copy my files from Downloads folder to my Test Folder

The only problem I'm having currently is when Filebot tries to move my Anime Files it renames the folder with anidb but not the video file. So when the download finishes I get a new correctly named folder in my C:videos/test/anime/Naruto Shipuden folder but the video will keep the original name ([HorribleSubs] Naruto Shippuuden - 346 [720p) for example. the reason I am using {s00e00} - {t} is because xbmc didnt seem to recognize the .mkv files in the library when I tried different file naming formats.

Here is the Script i am using in utorrent:

filebot -script fn:amc --output "C:\Users\Maximilian\Videos\Test" --log-file amc.log --action copy --conflict override -non-strict --def music=y --def "seriesFormat={s00e00} - {t}/{fn}" "animeFormat=ANIME/Naruto Shippuden/{s00e00} - {t}/{fn}" subtitles=en artwork=y "ut_label=%L" "ut_state=%S" "ut_title=%N" "ut_kind=%K" "ut_file=%F" "ut_dir=%D"

My questions:

1. Is there a way to make it so it only renames the file and moves it into the naruto folder without making a separate sub folder

2. Is there a name discrepancy with AniDb and Naruto Shipuden(what my folder is named) and or Naruto Shippuuden that is leading to my problem?

3. Is my script wrong? ( I wanted it to have a rule for anime only (since everything else works fine) that puts it in anime folder under show name in whatever episode format that works best with AniDB)

4. What is the best file name format for anime in XBMC and AniDB scraper?

5. I would def be open to a teamviewer session if possible to dig right into the problem with me.

Any help is Appreciated Thanks Guys

Not sure what you mean, but whatever may be, it's all in the format.

2.
AniDB and TheTVDB and Wikipeida all use Naruto Shippuden (with one u) as official title (at the point of me writing this).

If your files are named Naruto Shippuuden it will likely cause issues, you might as well call it Naruto Apples and Bananas which is equally not equal.

3.
The default format should work just fine. Why are you using {fn} when XBMC obviously can't deal with the original filename? Whatever you do, make sure that the filename is clean.

4.
The built-in default format. I'd ask the XBMC AniDB Scraper developers for an official answer.


PS: I don't use XBMC so this is pure conjecture. Though I'm probably right.

1. I want filebot to copy the video file to the naruto folder and not create a new folder just send the file over renamed thats it.

3. TBH I didn't really understand what it did, still learning my way around should I remove it?

Well, the whole point of renaming is that your XBMC will recognize it yes? Then you really need to rename the file, not just "send it over".

3.
The default format will rename the file, not just "send it over". I think you should remove it, since that will ensure good naming that is easy to read for XBMC.
