Hi,

first of all thanks for this great piece of software!
I'm trying to setup the amc script with my usual renaming pattern. Unfortunately I'm strugging with the escaping of the special characters (I'm not an linux expert):

environment:

Code: Select all

ms@rv-linux:~$ cat /etc/lsb-release 
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=13.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=raring
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 13.04"
ms@rv-linux:~$ uname -a
Linux rv-linux 3.8.0-30-generic #44-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 22 20:52:24 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
ms@rv-linux:~$ java -version
java version "1.7.0_25"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.3.10) (7u25-2.3.10-1ubuntu0.13.04.2)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.7-b01, mixed mode)

I'm using the latest version of FileBot (3.62) with the newest amc script.

Pattern (that works perfectly in the GUI):

Code: Select all

/home/ms/videos/series/{n}/{n.replaceTrailingBrackets().replaceAll(/[!?.]+$/).replaceAll(/[`´‘’ʻ]/, "'").lowerTrail()} - Season {s}/{n.replaceTrailingBrackets().replaceAll(/[!?.]+$/).replaceAll(/[`´‘’ʻ]/, "'").lowerTrail()} - {s00e00} - {t.replaceTrailingBrackets().replaceAll(/[!?.]+$/).replaceAll(/[`´‘’ʻ]/, "'").lowerTrail().replacePart(', Part $1')} ({airdate.format('yyyy-MM-dd')})

Command Line:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
filebot.sh -script fn:amc "/home/ms/series_tosort/" --output "/home/ms/videos/series/" --def music=n --def subtitles=en,de --def clean=y --def "seriesFormat={n}/{n.replaceTrailingBrackets().replaceAll(/[!?.]+$/).replaceAll(/[`´‘’ʻ]/, \"\'\").lowerTrail()} - Season {s}/{n.replaceTrailingBrackets().replaceAll(/[!?.]+$/).replaceAll(/[`´‘’ʻ]/, \"\'\").lowerTrail()} - {s00e00} - {t.replaceTrailingBrackets().replaceAll(/[!?.]+$/).replaceAll(/[`´‘’ʻ]/, \"\'\").lowerTrail().replacePart(\', Part $1\')} ({airdate.format(\'yyyy-MM-dd\')})" --log-file amc.log --action copy -non-strict

Unfortunately it doesn't work.
Output is:

Code: Select all

"-" is not a valid option

I tried to find an automated online tools that can help with the correct escaping but without success.

Any help is very much appreciated!

Thanks in advance,
Marcus

Escaping is shit-work, unfortunately. You'll have to start simple, with a very basic format. If it works add some complexity, if it fails you know where the error is. Repeat until you build the whole thing.

PS: I think you only need to escape \", not \' though go by trial and error and you'll figure it out step by step.
