so this is my CLI Script im using and works fine (this is a mounted drive with my seedbox using Mountain Duck)

filebot.exe -script fn:amc --output "W:/files/!Plex Approved" --action move -non-strict "W:/files/!Plexis" --log-file amc.log --def excludeList=amc.txt --def clean=Y --def "movieFormat=W:/files/!Plex Approved/Movies/{n} ({y}) ({certification}){fn.match(/~Roku/)}" --def "seriesFormat=W:/files/!Plex Approved/TV Shows/{n}/Season {s.pad(2)}/{n} - {s00e00} - {t}{fn.match(/~Roku/)}"

// Had to call it !Plexis because !Plex Approved and !Plex would clash

I was looking at another post with someone who had problems with matching some anime because of aniDB

Now this script has
"movieFormat=" //Which would use tmdb
"seriesFormat=" // Which would use tvdb

what id like to know is it possible to add
"animeFormat="
but with it using tvdb not aniDB as a scrapper
is there a way for filebot to know a series is labeled as anime from tvdb then would use the "animeFormat" string?

That way Plex is happy because the naming scheme is from tvdb and I can control which folder anime goes into.


If this isn't possible then ill continue to use a second script with a separate folder and funnel anime into it.
I ask since amc can handle anime now instead of abs2sxe

Yes, Anime are supported, but with some caveats because Anime are TV Shows. You will find detailed notes and links regarding anime in the amc script manual.
