Anime and Anime Movies going into the wrong folder

Post by zhyp »

Hello,
I've been using filebot for a few months now, more or less with the basic setup of fn:amc.
This is how it looks like (after seeing this post I made the changes on the 'xFormat'):

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:amc --output "E:\Media" --action hardling -non-strict "E:\Torrents\Finished" --def skipExtract=n --def deleteAfterExtract=n --def excludeList=amc.txt --def extractFolder="E:\Torrents\Extracted" --def clean=y --def animeDB=AniDB movieDB=TheMovieDB seriesDB=TheMovieDB::TV musicDB=ID3 --def subtitles=en,pob --log-file="E:\Media\AMC-log.txt" --conflict auto --def seriesFormat="{anime ? 'Anime' : 'TV Shows'}/{~plex}" moviesFormat="{anime ? 'Anime Movies' : 'Movies'}/{~plex}"
You can probably get the idea behind this line, basically I want to move animes and anime movies into their respective folders, trying to download Hunter x Hunter: Phantom Rouge, it went into the Movies folder, and weirdly enough when using the Filebot GUI to do it (I use the qBitTorrent after download complete feature to run the command) with this format expression:

Code: Select all

{drive}/Media/{anime ? 'Anime Movies' : 'Movie'}/{~plex}
it goes to 'Anime Movies' with no problem, nothing crazy happening on the logs, just normal processing, any idea on what may be happening here?
I'm not sure on what I can paste in here for you to help me.

You have mistyped the parameter name. It's movieFormat and not moviesFormat. The latter has no effect.

No worries, it happens a lot. Plenty of people have purchased a $60 life-time license and then have it sent to @gnail.com so a typo on the command-line really isn't a big deal. :lol:


:idea: We'll add additional startup sanity checks to the amc script in upcoming revisions to check for invalid parameter names.
