is this too complicated ?
Posted: 23 Jan 2024, 14:10
hey guys.
just started my year's license.
loaded my whole messed up folder with lots of series and ugly formatting.
played with all those settings too https://prnt.sc/ud-z6R0btp-c
after a few days with some poor partial results, i've decided to ask the experts for guidance.
what i am trying to do , is to set it up for Plex.
this is what i want:
1. i want to load in filebot 1 (or all) series at a time. and then
2. i want the folders and files processed like so: as a main folder, i want The name The year 4K or not Codec Used (hevc or others) Audio Channels (DolbyAtmos or 5.1 or whatever) DV (if yes)
the files, named simple/standard, in english, grouped in subfolders like Season 1, 2.....
i want do do smtg similar to my movies and cartoons library too.
ok. now, here is where i'm being picky (think this is too much to ask but here it goes)
1. i want to be able to set up a Processed Folder destination (so, i load files from where they are and then i want to save (yes, save) the result in another location)
the reason for all this is : i have to make 2 copies of my library: one copy in English titles (file names) and the second copy with Romanian translated titles.
the reason for a 2nd library in Romanian is because the subtitle file names i have found so far, are also named/translated in Romanian. so the movie file name has to
be translated in Romanian too to be a match, don't they?
2. is there a way to download subtitles for 2-3 languages rather than just for 1?
looking at some of your video guides and reading some of the forum posts, got me more confused.
a lot of them are for older app versions and can't seem to match the guidance
is there anything written somewhere or even close to what i am trying to achieve so i can watch?
just in case i haven't mentioned it before, i'm quite thick when it comes to metadata/files and folders/posters subs....(and the list goes on and on when it comes to plex and storing/sorting)
thanks a lot for your time.
