Not downloading Subtitles with Utorrent Automation....?

Hi

I set this beautiful little program set to run after each torrent in Utorrent. Which works great! But..... The subtitles don't download all the time and rarely download.

I used the script for Utorrent from the main Tips page and set it up for my folders. But when it auto extracts I rarely see Subtitles in the folders for TV shows or movies.

How do I get this to always search online for Subtitles after the Episodes are extracted? And if it doesn't find a subtitle right then, how do I have Filebot search folders periodically for subtitles? Like every hour!?


Also I would need these Subtitles to be in the Episode folder....

Check the logs. It'll probably tell u that it can't find subtitles at that point in time.

There's cmdline for grabbing missing subs. But I'm not gonna mouth-feed that to since you plan on hitting OpenSubtitles every hour. DONT ABUSE OPENSUBTITLES. If you need to batch -get-missing-subtitles do it at most 1 once a week, or do it only for specific shows when you need them.

And figure out to not repeatedly search for subtitles when there'll probably never be any.

I didn't mean ping there website every hour... Sorry. I should've worded that differently...

I meant after it extracts check once an hour for a few times then quit

The AMC script doesn't and will never support some kind of deferred execution. You can write your own scripts for that.

The CLI will get you along way:

Code: Select all

filebot -get-missing-subtitles <files>
You just need to figure out the timing and rules for how to exclude files.
