AMC script leaves off attributes when renaming some media files

Posted: 30 Jun 2020, 01:48
by korzynski
I am using the AMC script to move and rename my video files and to append media properties, such as video and audio attributes, for example: Movies/Kill Bill - Vol. 2 (2004)/Kill Bill - Vol. 2 (2004) [BluRay-480p][AC3][5.1][x264].mkv.

I specified --def 'movieFormat={plex.derive{" [$vs-$vf][$ac][$channels][$vc]"}}', and it worked great for some files, but many others the script left off the attributes.

Out of 1,944 movie files that were successfully processed, 819 were renamed as expected, but 1,125 were renamed with just the movie name and release date without the audio and video attributes.

The log shows that the files were identified, renamed and moved, but doesn't include any errors or other information about why it named these files differently. I checked the embedded metadata in several files from each group and didn't find anything significantly different between the ones that were named correctly and the ones that weren't.

The log is about 4MB in size, but you can view it at https://www.dropbox.com/s/5vef578m2bcd4 ... t.log?dl=0

Below is an excerpt from the log showing several examples:

Keep in mind that each individual binding may fail, and thus unwind the entire expression or closure:
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1895


e.g. if vs is undefined, which it may very well be depending on the original file name, then you will get no value for any binding since the expression fails right away:

Code: Select all

plex.derive{" [$vs-$vf][$ac][$channels][$vc]"}
:arrow: You'll want to use the GUI to rapidly prototype your format to make sure it works for all your files, and not just some of them.


e.g. if you separate each binding into it's own closure, then you'll get all the defined bindings at least:

Code: Select all

plex.derive{[vs]}{[vf]}{[ac]}{[channels]}{[vc]}

Thank you! I'll try that.

Thank you for the suggestion! I found a format that appears to work on my test folder

Code: Select all

{plex.derive
	{[tags]}
	{[allOf{vs}{vf}.join("-")]}
	{[allOf{ac}{channels}.join(" ")]}
	{[vc]}
	{-rg}
}
The only problem is that when both properties in the allOf statement are missing, I end up with empty brackets, so a bunch of my files end with "[][]". I couldn't figure out any good way to only include the brackets when the list contains elements. I was hoping to do something like

Code: Select all

{s=allOf{vs}{vf}.join("-")
s?[s]:""}
But that always returns empty. Is there a better way?

But what did you mean about using the GUI to rapidly prototype? It doesn't seem like the Windows app offers any helpful formatting features that aren't in the CLI, and it takes just as long to do a full test run through my library - about 2 hours. Is there a trick I'm missing that would help test more quickly?

Finally, how can I rename all of the existing files in place now that I've already processed them once? They are all in the correct folders, I just need to fix the naming format of the media files. But if I try to specify the same directory for output and input, I get an error message like the following:

Code: Select all

Invalid usage: output folder [/volume1/Media/Library/FBTest] must be separate from input arguments [/volume1/Media/Library/FBTest]
When I do process the files for the second time, will filebot use the information that it previously created in the .xattr folders on the first run or will it just use the current filename to identify the files?

I think I found a fix for the orphaned brackets, thanks to a comment of yours on another thread (viewtopic.php?t=11817). This seems to work:

Code: Select all

{plex.derive
	{[tags]}
	{allOf{vs}{vf}.joining('-','[',']')}
	{allOf{ac}{channels}.joining(' ','[',']')}
	{[vc]}
	{-rg}
}
But I'm still unable to make the script rename the files in place since they were already moved to the destination folder during the first run. Is there a way to rename them without moving them?

If expression path and file path match filebot will just rename the file and not move anything. If you have a custom format and wish Filebot to follow it, you have to come up with a matching expression.

plex.derive() is used to tweak the filename for extra infos, but it creates a path for you. If you want to tweak file paths or use existing custom ones, just state so in your format expression.

e.g. for series,

Code: Select all

TV/{n}/{'Season '+s}/{n} - {s00e00} - {t}{' '+tags}{allOf{vs}{vf}.joining('-',' [',']')}
for movies,

Code: Select all

Movies/{ny}/{ny}{' '+tags}{allOf{vs}{vf}.joining('-',' [',']')}{' CD'+pi}{'.'+lang}
