Running Commandline version then Archiving results in duplicates?

Hi JW

I use a postprocessing command to create Moviewiz entries of recorded shows in my Recordings Dir. I then sometimes archive these shows and the MW has duplicate entries of the show, one with the old path and one with the new one.

Is this the correct behaviour?

No, I tried to avoid that from happening. Do you happen to rename the file as part of the archive process, or simply move it to another directory?

MovieWiz attempts to check for any duplicate 'Filenames' when resolving archive locations, but maybe I missed some flow. Could you detail the steps you go thru and I'll look for a miss on my part.

Hi JW,


Nope I don't rename, just archive.

1. I Schedule a Program. It Records. e.g. D:\GBPVRVids\RecordedShowDirName\RecordedShowName.mpg
   
2. After recording, PostProcessing.bat runs a batch file (as below).
   
3. It makes an entry in MoviewWiz, i.e. D:\GBPVRVids\RecordedShowDirName\RecordedShowName.mpg
   
4. When I reaslise I'm unlikely to watch it for a while, I archive it manually, from XRecord. It archives just fine to G:\ArchivedMovies\RecordedShowDirName\RecordedShowName.mpg and MOVES the file from D:\... to G:\...
   
5. When I go into Moviewiz, I see TWO entries for the same show, same date etc.
   D:\GBPVRVids\RecordedShowDirName\RecordedShowName.mpg and
   G:\ArchivedMovies\RecordedShowDirName\RecordedShowName.mpg

Hi JW,



Nope I don't rename, just archive.MovieWizManager.bat

Code:

C:\Progra~1\Devnz\GBPVR\Plugins\MovieWiz\MovieWizManager.exe -Recordings -SyncArchived -SubDirs -Load:"D:\GBPVRVids;\\Theslug\disk 1\ArchivedMovies;\\Theslug\disk 2\ArchivedMovies;G:\ArchivedMovies" -Ignore:"Lost;Heroes;Boston Legal;Child of our time;America's Funniest;Super 14;Top 5;The Nine;Damages;ER (XI;Rugby;Everest;Prison Break;"

Ok, I'm thinking the problem is because MovieWizManger imports recordings BEFORE it attempts to Syncronize. Try this version, it runs the sync process 1st if requested as part of the command line.

Thanks JW, will try over next few days.
