Auto Organize without renaming the file

[JunkStar 11]

Hi

 

I would really like that option to use the auto organizer without it renaming the files since some of the stuff i download comes with custom subtitles and renaming the media file would break that.

 

Would this be possible to implement?

Anyone?

Have you thought about embedding the subtitles into the container? Then renaming the container wouldn't matter.

That's not how downloaded files are compiled tho;)

[Nologic 30]

True, but a script could be written that would batch the embedding of subtitles.

I think it's probably easier just to add a checkbox "Don't rename" to the Auto-Organize interface.

[Nologic 30]

Well there is also the possibility of using theRenamer to rename files...this will also rename the sub's and such.

I'd like that feature too. I love auto-organize, but I can't use it anymore because of loosing the team, resolution, source, etc.

[softworkz 3349]

The resolution is extracted by Emby, that shouldn't be a problem. But the original filename _does_ get lost, that's right.

 

We might be able to add a pattern/token for the original filename to the "Episode file patterns" in the autoorganize configuration.

 

@Luke: What do you think about that?

That's fine

[softworkz 3349]

Good, I'll put this on my list...

Still hoping for some solution for this

Been playing around with the code just to learn and this was an easy fix.

 

In Emby.Server.Implementations.FileOrganization you will find the function responsible for naming GetEpisodeFileName and by adding a new pattern I can now use the original file name in my naming pattern like this :  %fn.%ext. 

 

%fn becomes a match for the filename without extension by adding one more Replace to the result.

Of course the settings page would need to be updated to reflect this as well.

 

            var result = pattern.Replace("%sn", seriesName)
                .Replace("%s.n", seriesName.Replace(" ", "."))
                .Replace("%s_n", seriesName.Replace(" ", "_"))
                .Replace("%s", seasonNumber.ToString(_usCulture))
                .Replace("%0s", seasonNumber.ToString("00", _usCulture))
                .Replace("%00s", seasonNumber.ToString("000", _usCulture))
                .Replace("%ext", sourceExtension)
                .Replace("%en", "%#1")
                .Replace("%e.n", "%#2")
                .Replace("%e_n", "%#3")
                .Replace("%fn",Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(sourcePath));

It's possible for a future update, yes.
