Mover not moving files long names

When mover runs it will skip files with long file names. When I turn on logging, i get a bunch of lines like the below (with the filenames included)

May 5 08:50:48 Rack shfs: copy_file: /path/filename.mkv.partial (36) File name too long

May 5 08:50:48 Rack move: move_object: /path/filename.mkv File name too long

 

 

I can move the files manually OK. Is there any way to get the mover to process these files without renaming them?

Mover adds in ".partial" during the move to solve various problems that users have on occasion

 

This makes your filename too long.  Right now, your source is 255 characters on the filename itself.  This is the maximum length of any filename.

 

I'd simplify your naming convention that you've got (presumably) sonarr naming the file to.  It seems to be a tad much, having both the [S01E12] and the episode # 012 separate, along with all of the file info x264, audio etc in the filename itself when usually it only needs to be done in the associated .nfo file unless you want to see at a glance everything about the file.

I use trash guides naming scheme, and the extra info is needed for the regex profiles.

It’s only been an issue with a couple of anime shows with REALLY long episode names.

 

I’ve changed it to not include the episode name and they move fine now.

 

Was more wondering if I was missing an option somewhere for Unraid to move without renaming them/adding partial etc. but I guess not.

 

Thanks for the help :)
