External .xattr and CRC32
Posted: 06 Mar 2023, 20:17
Hi Red
I have my .xattr data set to be saved externally as sidecar files.
I am also using crc32 in my filename format.
My format also copies files from Seed Drive to Plex Drive when renaming... (A to B Drives)
When renaming using a preset in the GUI or a shell script (and copying) the files the CRC32 is calculated for the filename and two .xattr sidecar files are saved in the downloaded torrent's directory on Seed Drive (A):
complete/The.Expanse.S04.1080p.BluRay/.xattr/The.Expanse.S04E01.1080p.BluRay.mp4/CRC32
complete/The.Expanse.S04.1080p.BluRay/.xattr/The.Expanse.S04E01.1080p.BluRay.mp4/CRC32.mtime
When filebot is finished renaming and copying the movie and subtitle files to (B) Drive, those two files are not copied or moved over. They remain in the original torrent's directory.
What are my options? Calcuating CRC32 is time consuming, I would rather not have to do it twice for the same files on every copy. And there is the housekeeping issue of maintaining the original torrent file directory as downloaded without the added .xattr directories. Can you add a setting or option to copy them over with the files?
