Renaming of symlinks

[eoghan2t9]

Would it be possible for the script to rename the outputted symlinks and also rename the current ones. The reason I ask the media parser I use is very picky over file naming for instance this file

Tiger.King.Murder.Mayhem.and.Madness.S01E08.720p.WEB.X264-AMRAP[eztv].mkv

The parser doesn't like the likes of brackets etc in the naming of the files so would it be possible to customise the naming scheme for instance like this:

{Series Title} - S{season:00}E{episode:00} - {Episode Title} {Quality Full}

Renaming is always been quite Challenging since it cannot be done without implementing API's. Even with them, it will be difficult to handle few names which cannot be completely automated. I need to check upon how to handle these.

Happy days mate cheers I did do a quick search online apparently the mv command works to rename the symlink. Would it be possible to run filebot on the folder to see if that works lol

[sureshfizzy]

you can manually rename the files using mv, but that method will be hard for all files since you have to do it one by one :). Also can you explain the second method,? Never came across with such thing

[eoghan2t9]

Yeah to hell one by one renaming lol and filebot it's a tool used for renaming if files to make it easier for media parsers to get the correct metadata. It's a paid for product but could be easily added to your script if a user already has it installed.

I hope there is a demo version of it, I'll check the working on ubuntu and add it accordingly.

[eoghan2t9]

I'll happy get you a years license if you want lol

[sureshfizzy]

I'm learning on how it is implemented on sonarr :). It just picks the right name all time.

[eoghan2t9]

Haha that it does but if needed I'll send you my filebot licence via email ;)

[sureshfizzy]

I'm just worried about the users who doesn't have it

You could possibly do something like this in python got help from chatgpt lol

need to check this, can you try it locally ?

[eoghan2t9]

Not at the moment as I'm not at home but I will later when I'm home again

[sureshfizzy]

I'll check on this tomorrow.
