Agent and Scanner selection messing with my movie Libary and driving me insane

Yeap, its pretty easy to automate. Take a look at …

Windows:

Best Folder Structure For Fastest Library Scan?

I put 6000+ movies in a unique folder - in a week or so. It would have taken a few months by hand Here’s a faster way… took less than 5 minutes for 4,500 movies. Script is below the video. [batch plex] @echo off for %%i in (*) do ( if not “%%~ni” == “organize” ( md “%%~ni” && move “%%~i” “%%~ni” ) )

Linux:

Best Folder Structure For Fastest Library Scan?

Looks like you got it sorted. I’m on linux so when I done it I used a basic for loop using the following format: for f in *.mp4; do echo "${f%.mp4}"; mkdir "${f%.mp4}"; mv "${f%.mp4}".* "${f%.mp4}"; done This would take the name of each mp4 file in a folder, strip the .mp4 part of the name, create a folder with the name and then move it and any other files like srt with the same name into that folder. Took approx 5-10 minutes on my NAS when I done at the time.

I think FileBot can do it also but I’ve never used it myself as I have my own scripts to name stuff.
