If an action fails due to an invalid license, it shouldn't be added to the excludes file.

[BrianAllred]

Related to #23, having to manually delete lines from the excludes file when the license is suddenly not valid anymore is also very cumbersome.

That would lead to an infinite loop of try, fail, try, fail, try, fail, ad infinitum (if a new license is never installed) which is exactly that kind of behaviour that the --def excludeList option is designed to stop.

You can however add your own license check before calling the amc script call and send yourself an email:

if filebot -script fn:sysinfo | grep EXPIRED; then
  # send email to myself
  exit 1
fi

# do things that require a valid license
