Automating the Renaming of Files for Plex Media Server

Plex is great… so let’s set it up with uTorrent and execute FileBot after a download happens.

  1. Download FileBot from here
  2. Review FileBot forum notes page here.. .very helpful!

Completed files go Here:

F:/Media/COMPLETED

FileBot will rename and move them here:

F:/Media/Videos/TV Shows
F:/Media/Videos/Movies
  1. uTorrent Configuration for execution after a download:

"C:\Program Files\FileBot\filebot" -script fn:amc --output "F:\Media" --action move -non-strict "F:\Media\COMPLETED" --log-file amc.log --def excludeList=amc.txt --def deleteAfterExtract=y --def clean=y --def minFileSize=102400000 --conflict auto --def plex=localhost:NOTREALKEYHERE --def "seriesFormat=F:/Media/Videos/TV Shows/{n}/{'Season '+s}/{n} - {s00e00} - {t}" "animeFormat=F:/Media/Videos/Anime/{n}/{fn}" "movieFormat=F:/Media/Videos/Movies/{n.colon(' - ')} ({y}){subt}" "musicFormat=F:/Media/Music/{n}/{fn}"

This will create the directory structure like Plex likes and will ping Plex to re-scan for changes.
