I need script that mass renames SRTs using AVI file basename

Posted: 31 Oct 2010 01:32

I have a directory D:\MY_VIDEOS

and I have a list of folders inside it:

STARGATE UNIVERSE - 2 x 05 - FQM
SUPERNATURAL - 6 x 05 - FQM
and so on

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Inside a folder looks like this:

In case of STARGATE UNIVERSE - 2 x 05 - FQM
1
Stargate Universe - 02x05 - Cloverdale.hdtv.xvid-fqm.Eng.srt
Stargate Universe s02e05 (hdtv-fqm) magyar.zip
Stargate Universe s02e05 (hdtv-fqm, 720p-ctu) angol.zip
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.avi


In case of SUPERNATURAL - 6 x 05 - FQM
1
Supernatural - 06x05 - Live Free or Twihard.FQM.Eng.srt
Supernatural s06e05 (hdtv-fqm) magyar.rar
Supernatural s06e05 (hdtv-fqm, 720p-ctu) angol.rar
supernatural.s06e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.avi



where 1 is also a folder,

and .zip or.rar files always have the same ending:

magyar.zip or angol.zip OR magyar.rar or angol.rar OR mixed



All my folders have this same look or pattern.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


What I would like to do automatically using XYplorer are the followings:

shortly:


MY FOLDER BEFORE THE SCRIPT:

In case of STARGATE UNIVERSE - 2 x 05 - FQM
1
Stargate Universe - 02x05 - Cloverdale.hdtv.xvid-fqm.Eng.srt <= 1. give it the basename of avi + .ENG2.srt
Stargate Universe s02e05 (hdtv-fqm) magyar.zip
Stargate Universe s02e05 (hdtv-fqm, 720p-ctu) angol.zip
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.avi


2. unzip Stargate Universe s02e05 (hdtv-fqm, 720p-ctu) angol.zip <= 3. move this to folder 1

Stargate Universe - 02x05 - Cloverdale.720p.CTU.English.C.orig.Addic7ed.com.srt <= 4. move this to folder 1 if this exists
Stargate Universe - 02x05 - Cloverdale.FQM.English.C.orig.Addic7ed.com.srt <= 5. give it the basename of avi + .ENG.srt


6. unzip Stargate Universe s02e05 (hdtv-fqm) magyar.zip <= 7. move this to folder 1

stargate universe s02e05 hdtv-fqm.srt <= 8. give it the basename of avi + .srt


MY FOLDER AFTER THE SCRIPT:

Let my folder STARGATE UNIVERSE - 2 x 05 - FQM look like this
1
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.avi
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.srt
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.ENG.srt
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.ENG2.srt


9. REPEAT THESE STEPS all the folders inside my directory D:\MY_VIDEOS

10. DONE

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



What I would like to do automatically using XYplorer are the followings:


detailed and algoritmically thinking



(1.) Go to D:\MY_VIDEOS directory


(2.) Open the first folder -> STARGATE UNIVERSE - 2 x 05 - FQM
1
Stargate Universe - 02x05 - Cloverdale.hdtv.xvid-fqm.Eng.srt
Stargate Universe s02e05 (hdtv-fqm) magyar.zip
Stargate Universe s02e05 (hdtv-fqm, 720p-ctu) angol.zip
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.avi

(4.) Find the .avi file -> stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.avi

(5.) Copy its basename without the .avi -> stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm


(6.) Find the .srt file -> Stargate Universe - 02x05 - Cloverdale.hdtv.xvid-fqm.Eng.srt

(6.1.) first copy&paste it to folder 1, just a backup, after that

(6.2.) give the basename of the .avi file and a .ENG2 tag to the .srt file -> stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.ENG2.srt


So, now my STARGATE UNIVERSE - 2 x 05 - FQM folder will look like this:

1
Stargate Universe s02e05 (hdtv-fqm) magyar.zip
Stargate Universe s02e05 (hdtv-fqm, 720p-ctu) angol.zip
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.avi
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.ENG2.srt



Next step:

(7.1) Extract/unzip/unrar using WinRAR Stargate Universe s02e05 (hdtv-fqm, 720p-ctu) angol.zip

(7.2) and if it is done move Stargate Universe s02e05 (hdtv-fqm, 720p-ctu) angol.zip to the folder 1, just a backup.

(Sometimes there can be more than 1 or 2 .srt files inside the extracted .zip file.)



Now, my STARGATE UNIVERSE - 2 x 05 - FQM folder will look like this:

1
Stargate Universe - 02x05 - Cloverdale.720p.CTU.English.C.orig.Addic7ed.com.srt
Stargate Universe - 02x05 - Cloverdale.FQM.English.C.orig.Addic7ed.com.srt
Stargate Universe s02e05 (hdtv-fqm) magyar.zip
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.avi
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.ENG2.srt



Next step:

(8.) Find the .srt files inside the folder

Stargate Universe - 02x05 - Cloverdale.720p.CTU.English.C.orig.Addic7ed.com.srt
Stargate Universe - 02x05 - Cloverdale.FQM.English.C.orig.Addic7ed.com.srt
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.ENG2.srt

(9.1) If the ending of the .srt file is .ENG2.srt, then do nothing with it.

(9.2) If there is a 720p string in the name of the .srt file (not always exists this file), then move it to the folder 1, just a backup.

(9.3) Count how many .srt files left, if there is exactly 2,

then give the basename of the .avi file and a .ENG tag to the .srt file that has not been renamed yet -> stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.ENG.srt

else if there are more .srt files left than 2, then create a folder 2 below folder 1 and copy all the .srt files inside it.

I will rename them manually.



Now, my STARGATE UNIVERSE - 2 x 05 - FQM folder will look like this:

1
Stargate Universe s02e05 (hdtv-fqm) magyar.zip
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.avi
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.ENG.srt
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.ENG2.srt


Next step:

(10.1) Extract/unzip/unrar using WinRAR Stargate Universe s02e05 (hdtv-fqm) magyar.zip

(10.2) and if it is done move Stargate Universe s02e05 (hdtv-fqm) magyar.zip to the folder 1, just a backup.

(there is only one .srt file inside the .zip file)



Now, my STARGATE UNIVERSE - 2 x 05 - FQM folder will look like this:

1
stargate universe s02e05 hdtv-fqm.srt
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.avi
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.ENG.srt
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.ENG2.srt



(11.) Find the .srt files inside the folder

If there is no .ENG tag in the name of the .srt file

then give the basename of the .avi file to the .srt file -> stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.srt



Now, my STARGATE UNIVERSE - 2 x 05 - FQM folder will look like this:

1
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.avi
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.srt
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.ENG.srt
stargate.universe.s02e05.hdtv.xvid-fqm.ENG2.srt




Next step:

(12.) Go to D:\MY_VIDEOS directory

(13.) Open the second folder -> SUPERNATURAL - 6 x 05 - FQM

and repeat the above steps to each folder which are inside the D:\MY_VIDEOS directory.




If these steps can be solved using XYplorer's scripts, that would be a great help for me.

thanks

First and foremost, may I ask how much of what you would like scripted you have attempted to do yourself?

I have no idea how to do that.

I'm totally beginner.

I don't know either if it is possible what I want to do using XYplorer.


How should I begin to learn this scripting thing?

Where can I find how to use the script commands?

Which does what? What parameters can I use?

Are there example scripts?

.


What I want above is very complex.

I couldn't do it within a week.

So if there are here more experienced script writers,

please give me a solution.


I only need this one script because
it is a repetitive task and very boring to rename files manually.



thanks for your help

thanks for your tips


I have tried some simple scripts found on XYplorer download site.

What I know that I need a lot of knowledge to solve my very complex problem.


As a beginner it is impossible for me to solve it right now.

You're trying to run before you can walk. A better approach would be to work through your algorithm incrementally and add lines to your script one by one. I will provide you with a few pointers later on, but you've got to get past the "blank sheet" stage ;)

OK, let's do things sequentially as per your algorithm. I'm going to include code on a per-step basis so you can see how each action is done.

4.

Code: Select all

Selfilter "*.avi", f;
5.

Code: Select all

$avi_basename = <curbase>;
6.

Code: Select all

Selfilter "*.srt", f;
6.1

Code: Select all

copyto ("1");
6.2

Code: Select all

rename b, $a;
   rename b, "*.ENG2";
Tomorrow (Wednesday), I'll try to tackle steps 7 & 8, maybe even 9 if there's time. Feel free to experiment by yourself -- practice makes perfect! ;)

Class in session :P

7.1 Substitute my path and switches to WinZip with appropriate data for your archiving software

Code: Select all

Selfilter "angol", f;
   $curitem = "<curitem>";
   run """C:\Program Files (x86)\WinRAR\WinRAR.exe"" e -- $curitem",,1;
7.2

Code: Select all

Selfilter "angol", f;
   moveto ("1");
9.2

Code: Select all

Selfilter "720p", f;
   $count = getinfo("CountSelected");
   if $count == 1 {
      moveto ("1"); 
   }
9.3

Code: Select all

Selfilter "*.srt", f;
   $countLeft = getinfo("CountSelected");
   if $countLeft == 2 {
      Selfilter "com.srt", f;
      rename b, $a;
      rename b, "*.ENG";
   }
   elseif $countLeft > 2 {
      new "2", dir;
      Selfilter "*.srt", f;
      moveto ("2");
   }
Based on the above, do you feel confident to attempt steps 10 and 11? ;)

Final lesson... 8)

10.1

Code: Select all

Selfilter "magyar", f;
   $curitem = "<curitem>";
   run """C:\Program Files (x86)\WinRAR\WinRAR.exe"" e -- $curitem",,1;
10.2

Code: Select all

Selfilter "magyar", f;
   moveto ("1");
11.

Code: Select all

Selfilter "*.srt", f;
     $filelist = getinfo('SelectedItemsPathNames', '|'). '|';
     $p = strpos($filelist, '|');
     while ($p >= 0)
       {
      $file = substr($filelist, 0, $p);
      $name = regexreplace($file, "^.+\\(.+)$", "$1");
      $filelist = substr($filelist, $p + 1);
      $p = strpos($filelist, '|');
      
      if (strpos($name, ".ENG") == -1)
      {
         rename b, $a,,$file;
      }
   }
So, putting it all together, we get this...

Code: Select all

Selfilter "*.avi", f;
    $avi_basename = <curbase>;
    Selfilter "*.srt", f;
    copyto ("1");
    rename b, $a;
    rename b, "*.ENG2";
    Selfilter "angol", f;
    $curitem = "<curitem>";
    run """C:\Program Files (x86)\WinRAR\WinRAR.exe"" e -- $curitem",,1;
    Selfilter "angol", f;
    moveto ("1");
    Selfilter "720p", f;
    $count = getinfo("CountSelected");
    if $count == 1 {
      moveto ("1");
    }
    Selfilter "*.srt", f;
    $countLeft = getinfo("CountSelected");
    if $countLeft == 2 {
      Selfilter "com.srt", f;
      rename b, $a;
      rename b, "*.ENG";
    }
    elseif $countLeft > 2 {
      new "2", dir;
      Selfilter "*.srt", f;
      moveto ("2");
    }
    Selfilter "magyar", f;
    $curitem = "<curitem>";
    run """C:\Program Files (x86)\WinRAR\WinRAR.exe"" e -- $curitem",,1;
    Selfilter "magyar", f;
    moveto ("1");
    Selfilter "*.srt", f;
    $filelist = getinfo('SelectedItemsPathNames', '|'). '|';
    $p = strpos($filelist, '|');
    while ($p >= 0) {

      $file = substr($filelist, 0, $p);
      $name = regexreplace($file, "^.+\\(.+)$", "$1");
      $filelist = substr($filelist, $p + 1);
      $p = strpos($filelist, '|');
      
      if (strpos($name, ".ENG") == -1)
      {
         rename b, $a,,$file;
      }
    }
As you are not that familiar with scripting, I suggest you use Step Mode. Other than that, this script should do what you want. You'll need to actually go into a folder with the AVI file, but then it's scripting magic time ;)

the put-together script does not work at all

first look I've found some errors

$avi_basename = <curbase>;
maybe
$a


Does <curbase> command exist in XYplorer?

What kind of command can we use between '>' and '<'
is there a list anywhere?





copyto copies files to main D:\1\ directory and not to the folder 1 of the current directory

WinRAR not starting although I've changed the directory to where my WinRAR.exe is located



Question: what does the character '|' mean?



anyway, thanks for your tips

If I have more time, I'm going to learn this script thing.

Ok, I didn't actually test the put-together script as I have that environment to work with, but let's address your issues...
xyka wrote:$avi_basename = <curbase>;
maybe
$a
Should be no problem here as having an underscore (or multiples thereof) is allowed.
xyka wrote:Does <curbase> command exist in XYplorer?
It's not a command, it's a native variable that represents a base-name of the current list item.
xyka wrote:What kind of command can we use between '>' and '<'
is there a list anywhere?
No kind of command and, thus, no list. Native variables are represented that way.
xyka wrote:copyto copies files to main D:\1\ directory and not to the folder 1 of the current directory
Yep, my bad here. Just remove the slash and it will work. I'll edit the script extracts to reflect this.
xyka wrote:WinRAR not starting although I've changed the directory to where my WinRAR.exe is located
What's the error message when you try the script in step mode? If your path to the executable has no spaces then you don't need to use double quotes twice.
xyka wrote:Question: what does the character '|' mean?
It's what commonly referred to as "pipe" and acts as a separator.

Is it possible to search only for a word or phrase on a page of XYplorer.chm?

(I mean, not to search inside the whole XYplorer.chm.)

For example:

after I click XYplorer.chm -> Advanced Topics -> User-Defined Commands

I would like to search for <curbase> only on page User-Defined Commands.






@Native Variables

XYplorer.chm -> Advanced Topics -> User-Defined Commands

Here I can find the list of XYplorer Native Variables

but not under XYplorer.chm -> Advanced Topics -> Scripting Commands

Now this is clear. Native Variables != commands.



My WinRAR's path:
C:\Program Files\WinRAR\WinRAR.exe



$avi_basename = <curbase>
needs to be replaced with
$a = <curbase>

I use "<curbase>" but <curbase> is good too.

No, I don't think so.

So it has a space, two lots of double quotes are correct then. What's the error message in step mode?
xyka wrote:$avi_basename = <curbase>

If you wish. For the purposes of parsing the script, both are equally good.

No, it's because I forgot to quote like this "*.ENG2". Encasing it with double quotes should get the job done :)
