Filebot CLI hangs for days with no output
Posted: 03 Sep 2022, 08:45
I've been using filebot for years and purchased it from the windows store as soon as it was there. It's been working up until a year or so ago where the script I have used so many times would run ok sometimes, but occasionally hang forever (I let it sit 3 days once) with no output. The hanging issue became more frequent over time and now it hangs always. I can't get it to run at all. The GUI works but that's not practical for my purposes.
Sysinfo:
The .bat file I use includes:
Here's what I get:
... and a blinking cursor underneath. Nothing happens.
I've tried different source and destination drives/folders but it seems to make no difference if there are 5 files to process or 500.
I saw suggestions to (rarely, never scripted) clear the cache, so I tried it and got this error:
Not only is nothing else using that file, it doesn't exist. In fact there is no C:\Users\randy\AppData\Roaming\FileBot directory at all (nor on local or localnow). Could it be somewhere else or do I somehow need run get filebot to make it? This is a default install from the windows store so I didn't specify any special file or data directories.
Finally, I have 4.9.6.(r2195). I see that 4.9.8 is available from https://get.filebot.net/filebot/BETA/ as a x64 PKG or portable. I can't figure out how to install the PKG, and tried the stand-alone GUI. It works but asks me for a license key if I want to rename from the GUI. Is it worth it for me to try to figure out how to install the latest PKG beta (and will it work with my license?)
Thank you in advance for any suggestions.
