so just wondering if it is possible for filebot to detect 3D movies? and apply special naming rules for 3D movies?
why do we want this? because it helps PLEX to recognize and play those files correctly..

here's from PLEX 's website
From the FAQ:

Q: Does your app support 3D content?
A: Yes, the app supportes Half SBS and Half TAB content. The app switches automatically in 3D mode when it detects 3D content but this works only if you name your files correctly. You must include in the filename H-SBS or Half-SBS for Side-By-Side content and H-TAB or Half-TAB for Top-And-Bottom content. This is not case sensitive. An example as filename would be: Kung.Fu.Panda.2.2011.half-sbs.1080p.mkv.
You can check under Preferences -> About Plex -> Systeminformation if your device supports 3D

right now without 3D movie support (or it's just I'm too dumb to use it), FileBot will just rename it as regular movies, and it becomes a disaster when PLEX index it as regular movies.

thanks

Does the {s3d} binding work for you?

It'll retain the stereoscopic 3D tags from the filename. Plex uses those as well.

AFAIK there is no MediaInfo that'll tell, other than unusual resolution. Check with MediaInfo and see for yourself.

I'm sorry i just can't figure out how to use {s3d} works.... care to give out an example, for amc?

many thanks

{s3d} only works on files that have already been tagged as such in the filename.

e.g.

Code: Select all

Avatar.2009.3D.H-SBS.mkv

{s3d} matches this pattern:

Code: Select all

((H|HALF|F|FULL)[^\\p{Alnum}]{0,2})?(SBS|TAB|OU)
