What would cause this to happen? The amc script is called automatically when rtorrent completes


The first time it excluded files:

Input: /{location}/{show name}/{show name}.S06E01.mkv
Input: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E03.mkv
Input: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E04.mkv
Input: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E05.mkv
Input: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E09.mkv
Input: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E10.mkv
Exclude: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E02.mkv
Exclude: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E06.mkv
Exclude: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E08.mkv
Exclude: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E07.mkv


I force checked the files to get it to run again and it completed as expected:

Input: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E01.mkv
Input: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E02.mkv
Input: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E03.mkv
Input: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E04.mkv
Input: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E05.mkv
Input: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E06.mkv
Input: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E07.mkv
Input: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E08.mkv
Input: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E09.mkv
Input: /{location}/{show name}.S06./{show name}.S06E10.mkv

Obviously I have heavily edited the text above, but the naming convention used has always been handled well by filebot.

Any ideas?

There can be many reasons for files to be excluded:
* file size too small
* video duration too short
* contains blacklisted patterns
* path is already on the exclude list
* ...

PS: If it doesn't work at first, but suddenly works later, then that's indeed very strange. My guess would be that the file wasn't complete (written to disk) the first time around, and thus wasn't a valid media file yet.

Yeah, basically it was run one right after another. Its run automatically after download completes in rtorrent. After download completed, I scanned plex and noticed missing files and looked at the log. I force rechecked and looked again and there they were. It was strange. I'll try to keep track and see if there is something that is happening when it happens to try to narrow down what the cause could be.
