Don't ignore movie due to Missing data: release date

Is there a way to force filebot to not ignore a movie due to "Missing data: release date"? If the release date is missing, I would just like a blank space in the file name instead of the year.
below is my cmdline call, log and filebot -script fn:sysinfo.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide! :)

cmdline call

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:renall "e:\video\movies" -non-strict --db TheMovieDB --format "{n} _ {y} _ {vf} _ {af}" --action test --log info > e:\Movie-Rename-Test-2012-07-30(take1).txt 2>&1
snippet of log (showing error)

Code: Select all

Nope. Year is extremely important, and FileBot won't accept any data without it, and that piece of information shouldn't be missing in the first place.

It's best to add the missing information to TheMovieDB and and try again a few days later.

Thanks for the reply. I guess I will have to do that :)

the only problem is, when I got to

https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/10020- ... anguage=en

I see that it already has a release year (1991) listed.

What's the filename that doesn't work so I can try this myself?

So you meant to say that it's working, but that you dislike that warning message?

Code: Select all

Rename movies using [TheMovieDB]
Auto-detect movie from context: [/Users/reinhard/Development/test/AMC-TEST/Beauty and the Beast.avi]
Jul 30, 2015 6:27:19 PM net.filebot.web.TMDbClient searchMovie
WARNING: Ignore movie [Beauty and the Beast]: Missing data: release date

Processed 1 files
Ignore the warning message.

FileBot is ignoring this movie, and probably rightly so:

I guess I got confused by the error message and assumed it wasn't working.

So to be clear, when I get a warning such as that, it doesn't necessarily mean that filebot is ignoring the request to rename my local movie, but instead that it is ignoring a movie in themoviedb because it doesn't have a release date. Filebot could still pickup another movie with a release date and use that to match on.

Thanks for your help!
