I have 2 folders in the Media, which are Movies and TV Shows. There 2 main folders have subfolders. I tried to have Filebot just to go thru and reformat the folders and videos,. But It is creating movies and TV shows folders in each subfolder.
Code: Select all
filebot -script fn:amc "W:Media/" --action move --format {plex} -non-strict --def excludeList=amc.txt

Yes, that is what it's supposed to be doing. That is the intended purpose of the
amc script script, and the expected file and folder structure as defined by the
{plex} format.

Not explicitly specifying
--output can cause headaches. Because if we don't define it, then it will be defined for us, somehow, and that might not be what we want.

I'm not sure what
"W:Media/" means exactly. It might mean absolute path
W:/Media/ which is probably what we intend. It might mean relative path
Media/ in the current working directory but on
W: which probably isn't what we intend. We probably wanna be precise about this.
