hiho,
my problem is that when i let Filebot move Movie-Files from my download dir to Movie dir, it doesn´t make a dir anymore. Series still works as intend in the. I didn´t change the format which is H:/Movies/{n} ({y}) or changed the rights on the Folder, i also make a test dir in which filebot also didn´t make dirs with the Movie name in it, but it copies all the files to the dir...

any suggestions what can cause this behavior?

A. Flat Movie Folder Structure (one folder for all movies)

Format:

Code: Select all

X:/Movies/{n} ({y})
Example Output Path:

Code: Select all

X:/Movies/Avatar (2009).mp4

B. Standard Movie Folder Structure (one folder per movie)

Format:

Code: Select all

X:/Movies/{n} ({y})/{n} ({y})
Example Output Path:

Code: Select all

X:/Movies/Avatar (2009)/Avatar (2009).mp4

PS: You want to use X:/{plex} because that will account for a myriad of corner cases that you haven't thought of yet.
