SMA Conversion/Tagging Automation Script

Automatically converts media files downloaded by various programs to a standardized format, and tags them with the appropriate metadata from TMDB if the container supports tagging.

The Matrix

Works on Windows, OSX, and Linux. Despite the name works with much more than just Sickbeard and handles more than MP4s

Integration

Media Managers Supported

Downloaders Supported

Dependencies

Default Settings

  • Container - MP4
  • Video - H264
  • Audio - AAC 2.0 with additional AC3 track when source has >2 channels (ex 5.1)
  • Subtitles - mov_text

Docker

Two official Docker containers are maintained for Radarr and Sonarr with SMA included. These are meant to work with completed download handling enabled. See the respective Docker Hub pages for details

General Configuration

  1. Download or compile FFmpeg
  2. Install requirements/dependencies
  3. Rename setup\autoProcess.ini.sample to autoProcess.ini and place inside your config directory (or attempt to run the script which will generate a new config file if absent)
  4. Set the configuration options to your desired output and include the path of your new FFmpeg / FFprobe binaries
  5. Run manual.py and test out a conversion
  6. Configure direct integration using the instructions below

Sonarr Setup

  1. Set your Sonarr settings in autoProcess.ini
  2. Browse to the Settings>Download Client tab and enable advanced settings [Show].
  3. Setup the postSonarr.py script via Settings > Connect > Connections > + (Add)
    • name - postSonarr
    • On Grab - No
    • On Download \ On Import - Yes
    • On Upgrade - Yes
    • On Rename - No
    • On Movie Delete - No
    • On Movie File Delete - No
    • On Health Issue - No
    • Path - Full path to your python executable
    • Arguments - Full path to postSonarr.py
    • For Sonarr V3 you'll need to make a .sh or .bat file to combine your path to python and script
  4. OPTIONAL If you desire to convert the file before it is handed back to Sonarr, disable 'Completed Download Handling' in Sonarr settings and configure your download client to use its included script (scroll down to your relevant download client in the readme). The script will trigger a specific path re-scan, allowing the conversion to be completed before Sonarr starts moving stuff around. You must use either a download script or enabled Completed Download Handling. If neither are used the file will never be passed back

Radarr Setup

  1. Set your Radarr settings in autoProcess.ini
  2. Browse to the Settings>Download Client tab and enable advanced settings [Show].
  3. Setup the postRadarr.py script via Settings > Connect > Connections > + (Add)
    • name - postRadarr
    • On Grab - No
    • On Download \ On Import - Yes
    • On Upgrade - Yes
    • On Rename - No
    • On Movie Delete - No
    • On Movie File Delete - No
    • On Health Issue - No
    • Path - Full path to your python executable
    • Arguments - Full path to postRadarr.py
    • For Radarr V3 you'll need to make a .sh or .bat file to combine your path to python and script
  4. OPTIONAL If you desire to convert the file before it is handed back to Radarr, disable 'Completed Download Handling' in Radarr settings and configure your download client to use its included script (scroll down to your relevant download client in the readme). The script will trigger a specific path re-scan, allowing the conversion to be completed before Radarr starts moving stuff around. You must use either a download script or enabled Completed Download Handling. If neither are used the file will never be passed back

Sickbeard Setup

  1. Open Sickbeard's config.ini in Sick Beard installation folder
    • Set "extra_scripts" value in the general section to the full path to "python postSickbeard.py" using double backslashes

      • SICKBEARD_CAT - default sickbeard - category of downloads that will be passed to Sickbeard
      • SICKRAGE_CAT - default sickrage - category of downloads that will be passed to Sickrage
      • BYPASS_CAT - default bypass - category of downloads that may be converted but won't be passed on further
    • Save changes
    • Reload NZBGet
  4. When assigning categories in NZBGet and your chosen media manager, ensure they match the label settings specified here so that file will be passed back to the appropriate location.
    • In the relevant category set PostScript to NZBGetPostProcess.py to ensure SMA is called.

Not required if using Completed Download Handling with Sonarr/Radarr

SABNZBD Setup

Plex Notification

Send a Plex notification as the final step when all processing is completed. This feature prevents a file from being flagged as "in use" by Plex before processing has completed.

  1. Disable automatic refreshing on your Plex server
    • Settings > Server > Library and disable Update my library automatically and Update my library periodically.
  2. Set your Plex settings in autoProcess.ini

If you have secure connections enabled with Plex you will need to add your local IP addresss that the refresh requests are coming from to allow them to trigger the refresh, otherwise you will get an HTTP error. You can alternatively not force encryption by changing Secure Connections from Required to Preferred but this is not recommended as its less secure.

Found under Plex Server Settings > Network > Advanced image

Override Configuration Path

If for some reason you need to override the path to autoProcess.ini (for virtual environments, containers, etc) you can use the environment variable SMA_CONFIG to the absolute path

Post Process Scripts

Manual Script Usage

To run the script manually, simply run the manual.py file and follow the prompts it presents. If you wish to run it via the command line (good for batch operations) follow this format:

Help output
manual.py -h
usage: manual.py [-h] [-i INPUT] [-a] [-tv TVDBID] [-s SEASON] [-e EPISODE]
                 [-imdb IMDBID] [-tmdb TMDBID] [-nm] [-nc] [-nd]

Manual conversion and tagging script for sickbeard_mp4_automator

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -i INPUT, --input INPUT

                        also enables process-same-extenions if true forcing the conversion of files
  -oo, --optionsonly    Display generated conversion options only, do not perform conversion
  -cl, --codeclist      Print a list of supported codecs and their paired FFMPEG encoders
  -pa, --processedarchive
                        Specify a processed list/archive so already processed files are skipped

Examples

Movies (using IMDB ID):
manual.py -i mp4path -imdb imdbid
Example: manual.py -i "C:\The Matrix.mkv" -imdb tt0133093

Movies (using TMDB ID)
manual.py -i mp4path -tmdb tmdbid
Example: manual.py -i "C:\The Matrix.mkv" -tmdb 603

TV
manual.py -i mp4path -tvdb tmbdid -s season -e episode
Example: manual.py -i "C:\Futurama S03E10.mkv" -tvdb 73871‎ -s 3 -e 10

Auto Single File (will gather movie ID or TV show ID / season / spisode from the file name if possible)
manual.py -i mp4path -a
Example: manual.py -i "C:\Futurama S03E10.mkv" -a

Directory (you will be prompted at each file for the type of file and ID)
manual.py -i directory_path
Example: manual.py -i C:\Movies

Automated Directory (The script will attempt to figure out appropriate tagging based on file name)
manual.py -i directory_path -a
Example: manual.py -i C:\Movies -a

Process a directory but manually specific TVDB ID (Good for shows that don't correctly match using the guess)
manual.py -i directory -a -tvdb tvdbid
Example: manual.py -i C:\TV\Futurama\ -a -tvdb 615

You may also simply run manual.py -i 'C:\The Matrix.mkv and the script will prompt you for the missing information or attempt to guess based on the file name. You may run the script with a --auto or -a switch, which will let the script guess the tagging information based on the file name, avoiding any need for user input. This is the most ideal option for large batch file operations. The script may also be pointed to a directory, where it will process all files in the directory. If you run the script without the -a switch, you will be prompted for each file with options on how to tag, to convert without tagging, or skip.

External Cover Art

To use your own cover art instead of what the script pulls from TMDB or TVDB, simply place an image file in the same directory as the input video with the same name before processing and it will be used. Must be jpg or png

Import External Subtitles

To import external subtitles, place the .srt file in the same directory as the file to be processed. The srt must have the same name as the input video file, as well as the language code for which the subtitle is. Subtitle importing obeys the langauge rules set in autoProcess.ini, so languages that aren't whitelisted will be ignored.

Naming example:

input mkv - The.Matrix.1999.mkv
subtitle srt - The.Matrix.1999.eng.srt
