Move and Rename TV Shows and Movies from utorrent

Post by dreamercast »

Hi all, first off, I want to say thanks for all your hard work on this program and the support you offer. This saves people a lot of time and makes things so much easier. Really appreciate it.

For me, I find this stuff hard to understand, and implement for that matter.

I have utorrent, a folder which all downloads go into, called utorrent, and a separate TV Show and Movie folder, all on a WD NAS. What I would like to happen is for the file being downloaded to move into either my TV or Movie folder, get renamed so that Kodi can correctly scrape it. I've tried ufiler, applying labels to downloads, I've tried different scripts, nothing is working for me. I just don't understand how to translate that code into what I need it to do. I realize I probably have omitted some info, please let me know and thanks for any help in advance,

Have you tried the amc script yet? With utorrent, setting it up shouldn't take more than a minute.

I have tried using the amc script, with little success. Like I said, I have no idea what I'm doing. As an example, downloaded file in utorrent is processed using the below run command:

[2016-12-14 19:10:40] Executing: C:/Program Files/FileBot/filebot.exe -script fn:amc --output "//WDMYCLOUD/uTorrent" --action copy --conflict skip -non-strict --log-file amc.log --def movieFormat="//WDMYCLOUD/Movies/{ny}/{fn}" seriesFormat="//WDMYCLOUD/TVShows/{n}/{fn}"--def unsorted=y music=y artwork=y "ut_label=Series" "ut_state=5" "ut_title=Chance.S01E10.WEBRip.XviD-FUM[ettv]" "ut_kind=%K" "ut_file=" "ut_dir=\\WDMYCLOUD\uTorrent\Series\Chance.S01E10.WEBRip.XviD-FUM[ettv]"

I am totally lost on how to get this to work, sorry for my ignorance

The command looks reasonable. What does the console output say?

EDIT: You may need to "quote" the executable path since it contains spaces. Just calling "filebot" should work for most though so you probably don't need the absolute path at all.

Thank you for the reply. Not sure how to check the console but I will look into that. What I don't get is I want the file and folder moved to either TVShows or Movies, and properly renamed. What it is doing now is just creating the folder and file in the /utorrent directory. I also use the TVshows and Movies label in utorrent when I start the download, which doesn't seem to matter. I wish I understood this better, hopefully I will get there. Thanks for any help,

If you run this command, then it won't be doing anything at all, because you'll be running C:/Program and passing Files/FileBot/filebot.exe as first argument. Presumably, FileBot isn't even called in the first place.
