Getting "The token '&&' is not a valid statement separator in this version." error.

I recently updated to the windows app version of Filebot, which I'm calling from a batch script. Although I'm now getting an error due to the "&&" in my--def exec string. This was working with the previous non-windows app version of Filebot. Is there another "token" I need to be using?

The error:

And my --def exec string. It sets a few variables, then calls two batch scripts; The first sends a Pushbullet alert, and the second creates a list of file paths which are checked for duplicates later in my script.

Code: Select all

--def exec="SET name={n.replaceAll(/[:|]/, \" - \")}&& SET season={episode.special ? \"Special\" : \"Season \"+s}&& SET episode={episode.special ? \"S00E\"+special.pad(2) : s00e00}&& SET title={t}&& SET year={y}&& SET type={type}&& SET filepath={type=Episode ? [%disks%].collect{ (it+\"/Media/TV Shows/\"+n.replaceAll(/[:|]/, \" - \")) as File }.sort{ a, b -> a.exists() <=> b.exists() ?: a.diskSpace <=> b.diskSpace }.last() : \"\"}{type=Movie ? [%disks%].collect{ (it+\"/Media/\"+{fn =~ /3D/ ? \"3D Movies\" : \"Movies\"}+\"/\"+n.replaceAll(/[:|]/, \" - \")+\" \"+\"(\"+y+\")\"+{fn =~ /3D/ ? \" [3D]\" : \"\"}) as File }.sort{ a, b -> a.exists() <=> b.exists() ?: a.diskSpace <=> b.diskSpace }.last() : \"\"}&& CALL pushbulletalert.bat %name% %season% %episode% %title% %year% %type% %pushbulletapikey% %pushbulletvar% && CALL writeduplicatecheckpaths.bat %season% %type% %filepath% %tempvarlocation%"

Thanks for any help.

1.
Unrelated to the Windows Store, but related to the latest update, --def exec commands are not executed with PowerShell and not CMD.

2.
Your script is quite unreadable. What is your full amc command? Are you recreating your format? Are you sure that you can't just used the output path {f} for that?

3.
The best-practice for complex --def exec command is to simply call your script or executable. Simple calls are more or less the same in cmd, ps and bash.

e.g.

Code: Select all

--def exec="C:\horror.cmd '{n}' '{y}' ..."
