excludeList problems

[ziob]

Hi,

I'm trying to get the filebot script to work on my ubuntu machine. Running it as a crontab every 30 minutes.

filebot -script fn:amc "/home/**********/Downloads/Completed/" --output "/media/*******/media" --log-file amc.log --def excludeList=amc-input.txt --action move -non-strict --def "seriesFormat=Serier/{n}/{'S'+s}/{fn}" "movieFormat=Movies/{n} {y}/{fn}"

It works fine and extracts all files and moves them to the correct folder but when the script runs the "second time" it extracts all files again in the "Complete" folder because the extracted files are not in the "Completed" folder since they was moved the last time the script runned. After the second extract filebot just leaves the files in the "Completed" folder since it's already been handle before and the files are in the excludeList. And the third time I run the script it doesn't do anything.

Output when extracted the third time:

Skipped extracting files [/home/*****/Downloads/Completed/*******/*******/*****/24.*****.mkv]
Done ヾ(＠⌒ー⌒＠)

amc-input.txt

/home/*****/Downloads/Completed/*****/*****/*****/*****.mkv

How do I make it exclude a folder instead of a file so it doesn't extract it two times and skips it the third ?

Have you tried FileBot 4.1 RC3?

You can always use --action hardlink to work around any sort of "move VS copy" issues.
