FileBot

You can get away with much fewer filebot calls.

e.g. multiple arguments:

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:suball --lang nl "D:\Movies" "D:\TV Series"

e.g. better replace pattern:

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:replace --action move --conflict override "D:\Movies" "D:\TV Series" --def "e=.(nld|nl).srt" "r=.dutch.srt"

Moreover, it's much better to call suball before the amc script, so that the amc script can process the subtitle files alongside the video files.

e.g. format subtitles with .LanguageName syntax:

Code: Select all

TV/{n}/{n} - {s00e00} - {t}{'.'+lang.name}

So 1 suball and 1 amc call can easily achieve what you're doing with 8 calls.

It won't fetch subtitles for files that already have subtitles for that language. If there's a subtitles file that is not correctly language tagged, then FileBot will assume that it is "any language" so no missing subtitles for any language.

You're probably passing in some weird arguments, in this case, a folder called "filebot" relative to your working directory. Don't just blindly copy and paste stuff.

Delete everything that's not a video file. See what happens. Now continue with trial and error to figure out which files cause it to not download additional subtitles.

Did you read the manual of the suball script, and paid particular attention to default values? Too old, too young, too big, too small, contains embedded subtitles, etc

Do *.mkv files 1-5 and 7-8 already include English (or any language) subtitles in the mkv container itself?

You probably want to add something like this:

Code: Select all

--def ignoreTextLanguage=nl

Means: download subtitles if mkv does not already contain Dutch subtitles
