What I want the .bat to do is to "scan" the files, in this case, .mkv, looking for streams (if there's more than a video stream and an audio stream you might need a matroska file). If you have an audio stream and a video stream, let's change the files as there's no reason to use matroska.
Currently I have 10 seasons of a TV show, which I personally ripped from my own DVDs, and they are in .mkv format. But inside the .mkv there's only video and audio, the subtitles are separate.
The only reason I want to change .mkv to .mp4 is that plex can't use .mkv.
The current code I have to remove metadata on all .XXX in the folder:
if not exist "%~dp1_temp" (
goto foldercreate
)
else (
goto continue
)
:foldercreate
echo.
echo Created temp folder.
echo -
mkdir _temp
attrib _temp +h
set errorlevel=
:continue
for %%f in (*%~x1) do (
title Fixing %%f...
move "%%f" _temp >nul
echo Currently fixing %%f...
ffmpeg -xerror -hide_banner -i "%~dp1_temp\%%f" -map_metadata -1 -codec copy -map 0 "%~dp1%%f" -loglevel warning -stats
if %errorlevel% neq 0 (
pause
)
del "%~dp1_temp\%%f"
echo -
)
if %errorlevel% neq 0 (
echo FFmpeg errored...
pause
)
echo All done! removing temp dir...
rmdir _temp /S /Q
timeout /t 2 /nobreak>nul
:eof

I'm trying to create a small script that looks for a specific file in an hidden folder and remove it using IF ELSE, but it doesn't seem to work. It works when I try to find and delete a local file, but not when I try a remote hidden file.
This is my code:
#echo off
set /p destination="Enter destination PC name: "
#echo off
set /p username="username: "
echo.
echo [33m'Removing 'notes.ini' file[0m
timeout /T 2 /NOBREAK > nul
echo.
if exist "\\%destination%\C$\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Lotus\Data\notes.ini" (
del /A /Q /F "\\%destination%\C$\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Lotus\Data\notes.ini"
echo [92m'Notes.ini' cleared.[0m
) else (
echo [33m'Notes.ini' doesn't exist.[0m
)
echo.
timeout /T 2 /NOBREAK > nul
echo [92mScript clompleted[0m
I tried with a local file, and then the scripts works, but not with a remote hidden file. I always get the "else" statement as return with hidden files
I am trying to insert an "if not exist" in a windows batch file where another similar IF with the same formatting IS working - can't tell why this one fails after researching and testing.

You don't appear to have ever set LogFile to a value, so if it's not set, this line will fail when it's parsed as >> on it's own at the end of the line is invalid syntax, even if it's not run.
If you set LogFile before the batch file, or in the first lines of your batch file, the rest should work.
I have a folder with thousands of filenames like this. I need to put them inside folders and remove the useless parts from the filenames. I need to do this before adding the files inside my XBMC library.
[ www.AnnoyingSpam.com ] Some.File.Name.With.A.Very.Long.String.avi
[ www.AnnoyingSpam.com ] Another.File.With.A.Very.Long.String.mpg
[ www.AnnoyingSpam.com ] Again.And.Again.mp4
First, I want to strip the AnnoyingSpam.com tags in the files
Then, create a folder based on the file name without the tag and without the extension
Finally, move the file to the new folder
Repeat for the rest of the files in the root directory of the batch file
So far all I got is a script that will create folder and move files. But it adds the tag "Folder" to each folder and it doesn't remove the AnnoyingSpam.com tag
#echo off
for /f "usebackq delims=?" %%a in (`dir /a-d /b`) do (
if not "%%~dpnxa"=="%~dpnx0" call :func "%%~a"
)
goto :EOF
:func
set file=%~1
set dir=%file% Folder
md "%dir%" Folder 2>nul
move "%file%" "%dir%"
goto :EOF
So my question is how can i remove these strings from the folder names that are being created in the above script:
"[ www.AnnoyingSpam.com ]"
" Folder"
Since you are performing the check if not "%%~dpnxa"=="%~dpnx0" call :func "%%~a", my understanding is that you will be running the batch from inside the 'target' folder.
What follows is a batch script, based structurally on your sample, that accomplishes the necessary filtering and handles the rename and move operations.
#echo off
setlocal ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
for /f "usebackq delims=?" %%a in (`dir /a-d /b`) do (
if not "%%~dpnxa"=="%~dpnx0" call :func "%%~a"
)
endlocal
echo Done.
goto EOF
:func
set file=%~1
for /F "delims=" %%a in ("!file!") do (
rem stripped extension, next step is to filter to remove the 'spam' part
set "c=%%~Na"
rem original filename, will be needed for the renaming
set "o=%%~a"
rem store the extension to use later on when re-constructing the filename
set "e=%%~xa"
rem this is effectively a multichar stripper; filters the 'spam' part out
set "c=!c:[ www.AnnoyingSpam.com ] =!"
rem reconstruct the filename
set "f=!c!!e!"
rem echo !o! : !c! : !e! ::: !f!
rem rename original file to the filtered version
ren "!o!" "!f!"
rem create dir named after the filtered filename, if it does not already exist; just a precaution
if not exist !c! (md !c!)
rem move the filtered file to the appropriate dir
move "!f!" "!c!" > nul
)
:EOF
The script is almost self-explanatory (see the comments inside), however there are some aspects that I would like to point out:
The instructions setlocal ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION and endlocal, that in fact form a wrap around the for-loop, establish that the variables inside the loop will be evaluated (expanded) at the execution time and not during parse time. Notice that the variables are referenced inside the loop as !var!. See more on this here.
The removal of the unwanted 'spam' part is performed by this command: set "c=!c:[ www.AnnoyingSpam.com ] =!". What it does is best described by the following example: set "var=!var:substring1=substring2!", has as a result the substitution of every occurrence of substring1 by substring2 in var.
If substring2 is null (as is the case here), then the actual effect is the removal of every substring1 pattern found in the original variable. More on this here, and for an interesting use as a multichar delimiter see dbenham's answer here.
And, as always, test thoroughly before you use the script on the actual folders.
I know you've asked for a batch script, but if you have php installed, you can use this:
renameSpam.php
<?php
$removeTag = "[ www.AnnoyingSpam.com ]";
foreach(glob("*.*") as $file){
if (strpos($file, $removeTag) !== false) {
$newFile = trim(str_ireplace($removeTag, "", $file));
$ext = pathinfo($newFile, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
$fnNoExt = basename($newFile,".".$ext);
if(!is_dir($fnNoExt)){
mkdir($fnNoExt, 0777);
rename($file, "./$fnNoExt/$newFile");
}else{
rename($file, "./$fnNoExt/$newFile");
}
}
}
Place renameSpam.php on the directory with the files to rename and execute as php renameSpam.php.
I've tested this on windows and linux and it works as intended.
I want to have this script execute another script if a file name starts with one thing, another if it starts with another thing, and to continue on through the rest of the code if it starts with anything else. I want it to iterate through all the files in a folder and check against this. I have been working on it for a while and am looking for a fresh set of eyes since apparently I can't seem to get it working properly. Any help would be appreciated!

I need 3 different batch files for 3 different tasks:
-log the output of HldsUpdateTool.exe console, so far I don't see what's going on but I managed this:
#echo off
echo Updating...
call :Logit>>log.txt 2>&1
exit /b 0
:Logit
hldsupdatetool.exe -command update -game "Counter-Strike Source" -dir "Source 2007 Dedicated Server" -verify_all -retry
start notepad log.txt
-clean this log to get a files and folders list; the log will look like this:
Checking bootstrapper version ...

etc... later on files do not have extensions!
-clean the server folder from any files or folders not listed!
I did search around for 2 days but this is as far as I can go by myself...
You can shorten that to
#echo off
hldsupdatetool.exe -command update -game "Counter-Strike Source" -dir "Source 2007 Dedicated Server" -verify_all -retry >Log.txt
start notepad Log.txt
The problem with the files not showing extensions will be down to the program you are running, all the batch does is call the exe and redirect the output.
First of all,I'm a definitely newer to batch :)
As for the 2nd question:
-clean this log to get a files and folders list; the log will look like this:
for /f "tokens=3" %G in ('findstr /i /c:"checking..." log.txt')do echo %G>>_.log
May it works for you.
Update:
I download your log.txt and test immediately,this is the result(file names _.log):

if your files are in such an format C:\template\example\cstrike\materials\brick,you should just type c:\template\example,which includes \hl2 \cstrike and so on.
I work on Win7,which you may not.So I recommend you to adjust my batch file to your OS.Before running ,check that you have xcopy,rm,rename working for you.T
