This package now verifies the downloaded package against rednoahs PGP key:

gpg --recv-keys B0976E51E5C047AD0FD051294E402EBF7C3C6A71

(The key from https://get.filebot.net/filebot/KEYS )

Looking for a co-maintainer.

Please report bugs & fixes https://github.com/arch-noob/filebot

Package flagged out of date for quite some time. Where is 5.1.5 ?

Reported I need to set env variable _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1 to make filebot show up in Wayland - in my case Sway. I know that I won't set it globally as it would have ill effects. So this tweak I applied in my alias and the desktop file.

Author rednoah says: If _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING fixes the issue then so be it. Please report the issue to the AUR package maintainers.

On a new install, when attempting to match music, I receive:

Classify media files
* Consider specifying --db TheMovieDB::TV to force Episode Mode
* Consider specifying --db TheMovieDB to force Movie Mode
Rename music using [ID3 Tags]

net.filebot.mediainfo.MediaInfoException: Unable to load amd64 (64-bit) native library libmediainfo.so: Could not initialize class net.filebot.mediainfo.MediaInfoLibrary [/media/media/redacted.flac]

It looks like libmediainfo is an optional dependency, perhaps it should be required?

Thanks for this hint. I wonder if the priority could be changed or this MimeType key removed altogether. Who wants to open a folder or a video file this filebot? Is this a common user journey?

If you're like me, and don't want filebot to be your default file manager, you'll probably need to update your MIME type association after installing.

You'll need to update your filebot.desktop in /usr/share/applications the run sudo update-mime-database /usr/share/mime

I also need to edit /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache though this may be due to a mechanism I don't understand

Is it possible to use https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/java17-openjfx-bin instead of java17-openjfx?

If you are having trouble with this package, make sure to clone, build and install the java17-openjfx package manually. The java build also fails, but there are instructions in this comment on how to fix it. After building and installing java, the build of filebot should work normally.

Can java17-openjfk-bin be added as an alternative?
