FileBot

I just stumbled across this pretty awesome looking program.
I (as so many others) am planning to use it to sort my utorrent downloads.
Looking at the AMC script i find it does a little too much for my liking. (dont need subtitles or artwork)
All I want it to do is extract the downloaded file, rename it and place it in a folder.
All files should go into the same folder not in subfolders for series or sth similar.
I then have another program automatically do the sorting from there and add the stuff to my library.

Now my question:
can I actually slim down the AMC script or am i better off creating a new script? AMC has all the nice added extras of recognizing the differently named files and formats so i would like to take advantage of that.

just having wouldn't be enough right? (i know the code is not correct. haven't had time to read into it too much but i thought i'd just ask this before setting of in either direction.

thanks for the help!

All the features like subtitles / artwork / etc are disabled by default and you can enable/disable it all via cmdline. You can also define your output format via cmdline arguments.

thanks for the speedy response.
just tried it and basically it does exactly what i want except one thing:
how would i go about disabling the sorting into subfolders? i just want all the extracted episodes to land in ONE folder (lets call it "extracted")

also extracting a clip leaves behing an empty fodler inside the folder that contains the rars.
i changed it from copy to move and the video file gets moved instead of copied but the empty folder stays behind.
adding clean=y doesn't get rid of this folder.

EDIT: scratch the first worry. figured out how to place them all in one folder the empty folder inside the torrent folder remains though.
