Problem with Auto-Organize


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I discovered an issue I'm having with, what I believe is Auto-organize 

Any file that is Auto-organzied from my DL folder to the Series/Season locations becomes corrupt.  The video file will play but the picture freezes however the audio continues to play.

The original that's sitting in my DL folder is fine.   If i manually move the exact same episode to the Series/Season location is works fine like always.

 

Thoughts?

Correct me if i'm mistaken, but theres not even anything to install/reinstall to wipe and try again with Auto-organize

Is it possible that some anti-malware on your machine is doing something because we are programatically moving files around?

Its strictly a HTPC so no anti-malware installed

well first thing i would do is some comparisons to see if they're byte for byte equivalent. if they are, then auto-organize is fine

ok little help :)  how would i do that?

Start with are the file sizes exactly the same.

 

Then Google a tool that can compare them.

and some info

My HTPC holds MBT and MB server

The actual content is sitting on a QNAP server hardwired meaning no wifi BS :D

"video file details?"  or "video file data"

just checked and yes both "game of thrones" S04E10.mkv are 1.68gigs   both in the DL and the Show folder, and yes this was moved by auto-organize

a tool that can generate a checksum value will be best. then you know they're identical. my memory escapes so you'll have to search
