SABnzbd Forums

Hi all,

I've found a release group that posts good movies but when they are automaticly extracted via sabnzbd it looks like:
\\nas\movies\The Kings of Summer\TKoS1318pBRDSHQBRNLS-NLU002\The Kings of Summer (2013) 1080p BluRay DTS HQ-BR NL Subs.mkv
I want it like:
\\nas\movies\The Kings of Summer\The Kings of Summer (2013) 1080p BluRay DTS HQ-BR NL Subs.mkv

So in fact I need to move the .mkv file a folder up.

Most of my other downloads are extracted the correct way.

The reason why I ask this is because my xbmc doesn't find folder/folder/movie.mkv but only folder/movie.mkv

Is this possible via a script?

Yes, this is possible via a script.

pseudo-code:
The above is for Linux / *IX / OSX. I don't know about Windows.

EDIT: manual example:

In fact i'm looking for a code that is usable for every movie I download.
for example:
\\nas\movies\test\test\test.mkv -> \\nas\movies\test\test.mkv

but also: \\nas\movies\test\test.mkv -> \\nas\movies\test\test.mkv (stays the same)

So maybe it is possible to build a check in the script?

The pseudo-code I gave you does take care of that. You can try that for yourself.

But the code
isn't applicable for every movie

find "$1" -mindepth 2 -type f -exec mv "{}" "$1" \;

$1 is the full path to the directory where the movie is downloaded (the folder where you want your .mkv)
-mindepth 2 is needed so the command don't execute for the current dir, which would make an endless loop
-type f takes care of only files
and the exec just does a mv 'foundfile' 'moviedirectory'

Something like this should work.

Edit: this one should be a little more efficient, since it only uses one single mv call:
find "$1" -mindepth 2 -type f -exec mv -t "$1" "{}" +

My script i use does a couple things:
- move all files to the main directory
- delete all subdirectories (which should contain no files anymore)
- delete all non-movie files (*.jpg, url, html etc. etc.)
- append a ' - DVD', ' - Bluray' or a ' - ISO' to the name of the folder if it contains a dvd, bluray or iso
- clean xbmc library
- scan xbmc library

Can you share your script?
