Sort Movies into folders based on MPAA Rating (G,PG,PG-13,R)

Post by WhistlingInTheDark »

Hello all,

I am a total noob at any type of programming or scripting but I've really found an interest in all the different things filebot can do! My question is as I stated in the Subject, how can I get filebot to sort my downloaded movies based on their MPAA Ratings? Ideally have a separate folder for G, PG, PG-13, R.

I searched a bit on the fourms and it looks like /u/RedNoah helped someone sort movies based on their Genre (i.e. "family") But I don't think that will catch all of the movies for them, especially animated ones.

This is my current script that is ran after each torrent finishes downloading in uTorrent and it is fully functional:

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\FileBot\filebot.launcher.exe" -script fn:amc --output "E:/" --log-file amc.log --action copy --conflict override -non-strict  --def deleteAfterExtract=y --def clean=y --def "ut_dir=%D" "ut_file=%F" "ut_kind=%K" "ut_title=%N" "ut_label=%L" "ut_state=%S"
Any help is much appreciated!

You will need to provider your own formats.

1) See amc manual on how to override the movie/series formats
2) See website and forums how to write formats.

It's best to prototype your new formats in the FileBot GUI Format Editor.
