Hi I am tring to get filebot to only rename and move subtitles (sonarr dont import subs) but i cant seem to get it to work filebot throws error when using
Code: Select all
filebot -rename "H:\Test\Done" -non-strict --action test --filter "[.]srt$" --format "test"
for now i am using this
but would prefer if it leaves video files alone

The
-rename --filter is not a file filter, and it's also not a regex.
You probably want something like this:
Code: Select all
find "H:\Test\Done" -type f -iname "*.srt" -exec filebot -rename -non-strict --action test {} '+'
Learn the basic Unix commands. By combining some of the basic tools you can do quite a lot of nice things.

find is a Unix command. I can't help you on Windows.
I made this just for fun, but on Windows
tr and
xargs probably won't work neither:
Code: Select all
filebot -mediainfo -r . --format "{file}" --filter "ext == /srt/" | tr '\n' '\0' | xargs -0 filebot -script fn:sysenv
I'm sure there's some sort of shitty equivalent of
find in Windows CMD but you'll have to ask about that elsewhere.
EDIT:
I'd ditch CMD in favour of Groovy altogether:

No no, I mean if you're on Windows you should use something like this:
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=280&p=1058#p1135
Groovy Script:
rename-subtitles.groovy
Code: Select all
rename(
file: args.getFiles{ it.isSubtitle() }
)
CMD call:
Code: Select all
filebot -script /path/to/rename-subtitles.groovy -non-strict --action test

1.
You could just add
--format on the command-line.
2.
But if you already got a script, I'd do it in the Groovy code with '''-quotes so you don't have to escape anything:
Code: Select all
rename(
file: args.getFiles{ it.isSubtitle() },
format: '''{home}/Media/{plex}'''
)
