uTorrent and Filebot

Scotteh · 4 Jan 2014 at 14:05

Anyone used this?

Basically using a 'Run this program when a torrent finishes' script to use filebot to get subtitles, rename, etc.

However, when the torrent finishes downloading, the logger shows the script as being executed however it doesn't do anything.

If I copy and paste the script into command prompt then it does it fine?

Any ideas? there's no errors etc on the logger.

uTorrent probably still has the files locked as it's seeing which means FileBot can't modify them, had the same issue with CouchPotato and Sickbeard auto processing uTorrent downloads.

The easy solution was switch to linux and download with transmission.

Any idea what the non easy solution is?

Really useful if this would work, it's running on Windows Server 2012 though.

yes to the combination, no to the script.

I do it manually purely because it doesn't 'always' hit the mark.

As a suggestion to 'fixing it', you can stop a file from being accessed after a x mb in utorrent which might allow it to be 'changed' but obviously this will impact any uploads/download rates/rank etc

I can live with doing it manually for now, but would prefer to have it automatic.

I've asked the developer about it so wait to see if there's any reply, i'm sure i'm not the first person to have it.

Odd as nothing records it (amc log, history, etc) only shows that it's executed it within utorrent logger.
