Failure to change some filename

[dapidc]

Dear Support,

I really appreciate your effort bringing this kind of software.

I am not saying that your software is perfect or imperfect. It already helps me a lot most of the time.

I just want to report that I have two files that is somewhat having names that is not recognized by your software. In the current batch of 80 files, I have just this two files that is not get renamed as intended, one is still almost the same as the original, the other one having name completely deleted.



I wonder what is the problem.

Regards,

Keep up the good job guys!

unexamined..., but i think your used regex expression is simply not matching all cases of your file names.
All your file names must have the same pattern so the regex will match to all of them.
Since your file names differ in meaning of pattern, it's hard to compose a working regex. It seems you fail here.

Hi dapidc and Stefan,

I recently stumbled upon this neat little program and I found it useful so far.
But I encountered the same problem as dapidc. I think there is a problem with special (non-Ascii-) characters, e.g. umlaute (ä, ö, ü), accents, etc.
See the attached screenshot:



BTW: I'm using Windows 7 Pro 64Bit and BRU 2.7.1.2.

Yes, BRUs regex engine works for the 7-bit ascii chars (english alphabet) only.
No umlauts (extended 8-bit ansi), no unicode. For that try den4b ReNamer or AdvancedRenamer.
