AMC multiple renaming options?

Post by lazyeiger »

The one show I really want this script to work for doesn't work because of multiple shows in TVDB with a similar name . is there a way round this?

Thanks!

Jon

Have you tried using non-strict matching? What's the cmdline call? What options are you setting? Have you tried using the latest revision?

here is the command line call

filebot -script fn:amc --output "K:\media" --action copy "C:\input" --def excludeList=amc.txt

I am not experienced in any of this so I have no idea how to use non strict matching, or how to check the latest revision!

Thanks

As per the manual, this is the recommended usage:

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:amc --output "/path/to/output" --action copy -non-strict "/path/to/input" --def excludeList=amc.txt
Note that the -non-strict flag is set. The FAQ is your friend.


And it works:

Code: Select all

Input: D:\workspace\testdata\AMC-TEST\EastEnders.2014.04.01.WS.PDTV.XviD-TVChaosUK.avi

Thank you!

it was me being stupid, I changed "action copy -non-strict" to "action test" and when I changed it back I just typed copy and totally missed the non strict.

again thank you!
