Renaming movies with Filebot

Based on the badges and ribbons available in HomeTheater have come up with the following Filebot script to rename movies. You need a license to use Filebot, but it's worth it if you have a large collection to manage. I use the command line version and run directly on a Synology NAS.

Using this script you'll end up with something like this:
E.g. "2 Fast 2 Furious (2003) - (BluRay.2160p23.3840x1636.10bit-UHD.HDR.DTS-X.HEVC).mkv"

Only the items in red are used by PosterWall. The BluRay / {source} tag is only used if it is a DVD - BluRay badge seems to come from whether it is an iso movie or not. Everything else I just use to help summarise video quality.

Movies

Code:

{n.ascii().removeIllegalCharacters()} ({y})/{n.ascii().removeIllegalCharacters()} {tags} ({y}){try {if (vc) {" - ("}} catch(e) { if (source) {" - ("}}}{source}{if (source && vf) {"."}}{vf}{fps.trunc(0)}{"."+resolution}{"."+bitdepth+"bit"}{"-"+hd}{"."+hdr}{switch(aco) {
    case { it == "Dolby TrueHD with Dolby Atmos" || it == "Dolby Digital Plus with Dolby Atmos" }: ".TrueHD "+channels+" Atmos"
    break
    case { it == "Dolby TrueHD" }: ".TrueHD "+channels
    break
    case { it == "Dolby Digital" || it == "Dolby Digital Plus" }: ".Dolby "+channels
    break
    case { it == "DTS-HD High Resolution Audio" || it == "DTS-HD Master Audio" }:
        try { ".DTS-HD "+channels } catch (e) { ".DTS-X" }
    break
    case { it == "DTS-ES Matrix" || it == "DTS-ES Discrete" }: ".DTS "+channels
    break
    case { it == "Layer 3" }: ".MP3 "+channels
    break
    case { it == "Layer 2" }: ".MP2 "+channels
    break
    default: "."+aco+" "+channels
    break
} }{switch(vc) {
    case { it == "x265" }: ".HEVC"
    break
    case { it == "x264" }: ".AVC"
    break
    default: "."+vc
} }{try {if (vc) {")"}} catch(e) { if (source) {")"}}}{subt}

TV

Code:

{n.ascii().removeIllegalCharacters()}/{"Season "+s+"/"}{n.ascii().removeIllegalCharacters()}.{s00e00}.{t.removeIllegalCharacters()} {tags} {try {if (vc) {" - ("}} catch(e) { if (source) {" - ("}}}{source}{if (source && vf) {"."}}{vf}{fps.trunc(0)}{"."+resolution}{"."+bitdepth+"bit"}{"-"+hd}{"."+hdr}{switch(aco) {
    case { it == "Dolby TrueHD with Dolby Atmos" || it == "Dolby Digital Plus with Dolby Atmos" }: ".TrueHD "+channels+" Atmos"
    break
    case { it == "Dolby TrueHD" }: ".TrueHD "+channels
    break
    case { it == "Dolby Digital" || it == "Dolby Digital Plus" }: ".Dolby "+channels
    break
    case { it == "DTS-HD High Resolution Audio" || it == "DTS-HD Master Audio" }:
        try { ".DTS-HD "+channels } catch (e) { ".DTS-X" }
    break
    case { it == "DTS-ES Matrix" || it == "DTS-ES Discrete" }: ".DTS "+channels
    break
    case { it == "Layer 3" }: ".MP3 "+channels
    break
    case { it == "Layer 2" }: ".MP2 "+channels
    break
    default: "."+aco+" "+channels
    break
} }{switch(vc) {
    case { it == "x265" }: ".HEVC"
    break
    case { it == "x264" }: ".AVC"
    break
    default: "."+vc
} }{try {if (vc) {")"}} catch(e) { if (source) {")"}}}{subt}

Notes:

• Using {vc} as a simple way to check if any info has been identified by filebot. If it is missing then in all cases I've seen everything else is missing as well. {source} can exist, but that comes from the filename not the media file.
• trunc fps to highlight between 23.976 and 24 fps. Posterwall reads the media file not the filename though.
• Have to highlight DD+ w/ Atmos as TrueHD w/ Atmo as there isn't a badge for DD+Atmos.
• Using a hack to identify DTS-X. Filebot (in most cases) doesn't identify channel info from a DTS-HD track if there are object channels. Have seen 1 case where this didn't work. Looks like DTS-X Master tracks work fine (which most are), but DTS-X only tracks aren't picked up correctly. There are ways around this but requires a bit more code.
• Firmware 2.1.30 (x9s 27-Sep-2019) ignores media tags if there are square brackets present, this seems to be a bug.
• Each movie and its associated files should be placed inside their own separate movie directory. nfsstat analysis while playing video suggests the initial video open scans the directory (a getattr request per file). Guessing that the native player is looking for subtitles in the same directory as the video file. The delay in playing content correlates to the number of files in the same directory. Large movie libraries will suffer from these delays.

 

nice, thank you for this...
any code updates, or still using this ??

 

Actually HT don't use the codec for the badges. Check my guide https://www.mcbluna.net/wp/guide-zidoo-home-theater-media-labels/

 

This may be the age of streaming video, but we still like to keep an eye on the Plex Media Server and its various apps for people who prefer to have local copies of their content. Plex makes it easy to organize any (non-DRM) movies and TV shows saved to your hard drive, and stream them across your devices. Plex works even better when your files are named properly. That’s where a handy little utility called FileBot comes in NEWS ENERGIA LUCE GAS.
