[Windows] YoVanilla: Movie and Documentary Post-Processing

[NoTolerance]

You should have Sab set to +Unpack at the very least for your SD category. I have mine set to +Delete.

[NoTolerance]

Firstly, thank you for all your hard work on creating your script. i primarily wanted to use it to auto join split avi files. i have catagories for various types of files enabled in sab. I have mencoder in my scripts folder and your script did post process and join one split avi movie I downloaded correctly. not sure why but since the first successful merge it is not working. to make matters worse it is deleting the source files when it errors out. I know the files were downloaded as two separate avi files in my temp folder, as I checked before processing started. After processing all i am left with in the movie folder is the srt and sub files. The movie itself is gone. The original CD1 & CD2 are missing and as far as I can tell are permanently deleted. Very annoying as this has happened 3 times to double CD movies that were intended to be joined by mencoder. I wouldn't care if mencoder errored and could not join the files and I was left with the original movie parts. Unfortunately, I am left with the movie folder and only the accompanying subs. Poof, movie is gone. most frustrating to lose the downloads completely. Any advice would be appreciated.

I would like to see your INI file.

I am posting from my iPhone as I am away from home. I apologize for my delay in answering as my internet access is currently limited to my phone. Thank you for your assistance. I originally had sab set to + delete. When the movies began to be deleted rather than joined I changed my settings to + unpack. This did not resolve the error, the original split files were again deleted. I will post my INI file as soon as I return home. Thanks again for your assistance, and my apologies for the late reply.

[TheBigGuy]

I am often not at home, so i apologize if I don't respond promptly. I leave my computer to do unattended downloads using sickbeard. I use sickbeard to post process my TV downloads. I use moviegrabber to queue my movie downloads. Sab does an ok job at post processing my movies. However, I wuld love to get your script working properly to have all my split movies auto joined with mencoder. Thanks in advance.

Is your F drive a physical hard drive or partition, or is it a mapped network share?

[TheBigGuy]

Yes it is a physical drive. I disabled your script because I didn't want more of my movies deleted. I am now having a problem getting SAB to move the post processed files to my F:\ New Downloads\(New Movies) folder. It errors and leaves the original files in the Temp folder, when I configure it as a Movie category download in SAB config. If I leave it as a default category download it is post processed and moved to my F:\ New Downloads folder correctly. I will investigated all my SAB config settings further and may upgrade to the newest version of SAB. Thanks for all your hard work.

[TheBigGuy]

I went over my sab ini settings. there was a mistake in my categories being set to E drive. i corrected the error and did some movie downloads with Sab set as post proccessor for movies it worked properly and moved the movies to the correct folder. i then disabled post processing by sab and re-enabled YoVanilla as the post processing scripts for Sd & Hd movies. Downloaded 1 avi movie and it was deleted again.

Sorry Ill be heading out of town for a bit so I wont be able to access my computer for further troubleshooting, Thanks again for your help

[NoTolerance]

It appears that you're using the same directory for the complete downloads and the destination directory. I'm guessing that this is where the problem is.

In sab, you might want to switch your "Completed Download Folder" to something like "F:\sabnzbd\complete" and keep the rest of your settings as they are.

I'm almost positive that's going to resolve your issue for you.

[TheBigGuy]

Thank you. I will give that a try when I am back home and can access my sab install and script settings. Much appreciated. I guess nobody has come up with an automated way to join separate srt sub titles files? That would be the be all and end all if the separate movie and subs files could be auto merged. Thanks again for all your hard work.

yes my folder selection was causing the issue. I removed the folder paths I had listed in Sab's categories config. I also added a separate SD folder into the Yo.ini file. Seems to have helped resolve the deletion of files. Not all movies are successfully joined, but at least they're not being deleted now. Many thanks, much appreciated. Keep up the good work.

[polayer5]

NoTolerance, glad to see your still active and developing your amazing script. I was curious if this could be modified or adapted to use with utorrent? I know there are other methods available, but love the simplicity and effectiveness of what your script does. Not to sure if you be interested/motivated, but this would be awesome. If you are interested here are some similar projects. Thanks for your consideration and continued development of an amazing script.

I'll look over the requirements. If I don't have to rewrite the whole thing, I'd be willing to give it a go.

I don't think it's going to be much of a rewrite after glancing at it, but I think it's going to have to be a separate app, in order to not confuse things.

I'm guessing the admins here would prefer we keep this board limited to SAB scripts, so I just registered over at the uTorrent forums. Once I have a working alpha release to test out, I'll post it over there and that's where I'll be looking for testers and feedback.

With the etiquette of using torrents being so different than just grabbing files from a newsgroup, I am going to have a number of questions about this. So if you're not already registered over there, you might want to.
