File renaming and Moving

[pinballenthusiast]

I'm brand new to filebot and am trying to move things including subfolders while also renaming them.

Here's an example:

Code: Select all

Z:\Plex Media Server\Movies\300- Rise of an Empire\
|    300 Rise of an Empire_t01.mkv
\----Scenes
.....|SceneA.mkv
.....|SceneB.mkv

I'd like to rename the folder to plex standards, while also moving the scenes folder and contents as seen below.

Code: Select all

Z:\Plex Media Server\Movies\300- Rise of an Empire (2014) {tmdb-53182}\
|    300 Rise of an Empire (2014).mkv
\----Scenes
.....|SceneA.mkv
.....|SceneB.mkv

I've tried the Import companion files, but it only appears to move the subfolder and not the subfolder and subfolder contents

The Import companion files feature is correctly moving Scenes folder is moved along as best as I can tell. Here's what I get:

Console Output: Select all

INPUT
└── Movies
    └── 300- Rise of an Empire
        ├── 300 Rise of an Empire_t01.mkv
        └── Scenes
            ├── SceneA.mkv
            └── SceneB.mkv
OUTPUT
└── Movies
    └── 300 - Rise of an Empire (2014) {tmdb-53182}
        ├── 300 - Rise of an Empire (2014).mkv
        └── Scenes
            ├── SceneA.mkv
            └── SceneB.mkv

I get the same results in both GUI and CLI:

Console Output: Select all

$ filebot -rename -r "INPUT" --output "OUTPUT" --db TheMovieDB -non-strict --format "{plex.id}" --apply import
Rename movies using [TheMovieDB]
Auto-detect movie from context [INPUT/Movies/300- Rise of an Empire/300 Rise of an Empire_t01 copy.mkv]
[MOVE] from [INPUT/Movies/300- Rise of an Empire/300 Rise of an Empire_t01 copy.mkv] to [OUTPUT/Movies/300 - Rise of an Empire (2014) {tmdb-53182}/300 - Rise of an Empire (2014).mkv]
[IMPORT] Moving SceneA.mkv (OUTPUT/Movies/300 - Rise of an Empire (2014) {tmdb-53182}/Scenes/SceneA.mkv)
[IMPORT] Moving SceneB.mkv (OUTPUT/Movies/300 - Rise of an Empire (2014) {tmdb-53182}/Scenes/SceneB.mkv)

Can you spot any notable difference between what you're doing and what I'm doing that might cause different behaviour?

What custom format are you using?

What does System Information say?
