Enhancement - Move episodes with Update files tool #92

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
According to help file:
"Update Files
File updating scans a series local folder and updates the video and the 
subtitles statuses. If you have the automatic file updating option in [General 
Options] enabled this scan is automatically performed each time you select a 
series. You can scan all the series folders by clciking on the Update files 
menu item in tools menu. 

File updating also moves all subtitle files (compressed or not) from the Main 
Series Directory (provided in [General Options]) to the series directory where 
they belong.If the files are compressed it extracts them and renames them (if 
auto renaming is enabled in [Renaming Options]) Supported archived files are 
zip, rar, 7z, gzip and tar"

The Update Files tool can also check the Main Series Directory and move .avi 
files it recognizes to the correct folder/series and rename it accordingly. 
An additional feature for the .avi and subtitles files is to also check in 
directories that are named with the same name of the series and check for 
episodes. This would be a great plus since nowadays many torrents put the .avi 
inside a folder with the same name.

So, if I have a default folder Downloads for all my torrent downloads, the 
Update files tool can check this folder for downloaded episodes and place them 
in their directories.

I'll plan it for 1.7 version

I implement it for next version
The only concern is that if the main directory is in a different hard disc 
moving the files may take a lot of time (a 1GB avi might take 6-13 seconds)

that is to be expected.
The user can be warned anyway...

That would be my case also, but I already wait in the cut-pastes that delay 
times...

Anyway moving the files is done in a separate proccess so the application is 
not blocked. But there should be an option to turn video moving on/off

Another issue is that there's no way for java to know if a file is completed or 
not.
So when downloading a file the application will try to move it. If it's used by 
another program (the torrent client usually) nothing will happen, but if the 
torrent client is closed the application will move the half-downloaded video to 
the series folder.
A solution seems to have the torrent client to download the files in a 
temporary directory and after finishing downloading to move them to the main 
series directory

This solution is very logical ... that is what I do as well. You can add
this in the help file...
