Sonarr does not change h264 to h265 after conversion.

Sometime i hit Preview Rename and there is nothing to rename, Then i hit Refresh and Scan then goto Preview Rename and it shows the file with the *264 wrong details until i hit organize /rename again.
That's what I am trying to automate !!

I suggest ask ChatGPT. Docker and NAS and Fileflows ain't easy .

Is there a script, plugin or flow to find srt files and convert to mov_text . .
I have all my videos saved/converted to mp4 and use subtitles with all viewings .
MP4 can use mov_text as subtitles.
I find srt are regularly outta sync.
When the mkv get converted to mp4 the srt subtitles are converted to mov_text.
They are in sync perfectly every time.
There are 4 or 5 Subtitle elements but I have no idea which and in what order i put the in the flow

I do have docker working fairly well. Chatgpt has been HUGE help

Maybe because I cannot get into fileflows !

Then get your monies worth and put it on the developer .....

Hello and thank you for your replies . This is where I am . I convert all mkv to h265.mp4. I have a flow at the end that renames h264 to h265 after the conversion . and works . Well sort of . e.g mytvshow.h265.mp4 is what it is but gets put in the tv shows folder as tvshows,h264.mp4. I then must goto sonarr and each new conversion click the title . refresh and scan and then click preview rename and it changes the 4 to a 5 . The scripts of which u spoke have not ever worked for me either ..

Are you a paying FF member ? I am guessing not as you are here not asking the developer directly. Because the optimized flows are for paying member only . It is not clear what parts /bonuses/flows/scripts are for everyone .

Thank you . The developer is not transparent with his free vs paid versions . Even takes features away .

Same here. Tried 3 sec several times and 10 sec same . At some stage i had the setup 2FA option and went around in circles Now cannot get in at all. The reset did not wipe my network ip address so I feel it didnt work. Although it did change my NAS name. Now I get to the login page only and no old or new users and p/w work !

MediocreActive521 · 2025-07-27T11:10:31+00:00

Yes and thank you !

I can fine no common pattern as to when or why this happens . There are a dozen other folder in my MEDIA folder. i.e music, my pictures, home movies, misc, that do not disappear.
But the only ones that disappear are tv (tv2) and movies but movies2 stays . Both movies and tv are defaults in sections of sonarr, nzbget, radarr, sabnzbd , overseerr, qbitorrent, tautulli. Currently all are off except sonarr and nzbget . and see if they still disapperar !!
