FileBot

Hello all,

I am using the following command line to manipulate my videos: All I would like to change is the output, so that all manipulated videos go into a common folder. I do not want to have individual folders for each show or movie. This will allow me to automate the transcoding of the videos. I cannot seem to see what I need to change.

Thanks,
Steve

The amc script uses the {plex.id} format by default. Separating movies and TV shows is extremely important. Separating each movie and TV series into its own movie / series folder is equally important.


That said, your format, your rules. You can use {plex.name} as your format for each content type. If your format only generates a file name, then that file will go directly into your --output folder. Please read the Change how files will be organized and renamed section for details.


e.g. if you want to put all your files into the --output folder:
e.g. if you just mean to remove the top-level Movies / TV Shows folder but otherwise want to keep the {plex.id} format folder structure:
If you are using the FileBot Node WebUI, please read the FileBot Node Reference Manual › Format Options section as well.


Also, if you want to automate the transcoding of videos, presumably by calling ffmpeg on each media file after processing, then you may prefer to use the --def exec parameter.
