Help on renaming files
Posted: 28 Jul 2015 23:12
Hi,
Would someone help on how should I rename a group of selected files following this pattern:
movie name in spanish - original movie name, year.[blablabla].extension
movie name in spanish - original movie name, year.blablabla.extension
into this one?:
movie name in spanish (year).(original movie name).[blablabla].extension
or
movie name in spanish (year)\movie name in spanish (year).(original movie name).[blablabla].extension (same as above but also creating a folder)
I think the most difficult part is how to keep the information contained after the original movie name, usually in brackets, but not always while always after as a dot (used as separator).
This new format is required by Media Centers, scrappers and the like (ideally each movie into it's own folder) and I'm going crazy doing it manually over hundreds of files.
TIA,
Diego
