Renaming filetypes in sequence - possible?

Postby runrig » Tue Oct 23, 2012 8:07 pm

I had a search through previous posts but did not see this asked.. apologies if I missed it.

I have mp3 files like this
track1.mp3.002
track2.mp3.003
track3.mp3.004

which I need to rename
track1.mp3.001
track2.mp3.002
track3.mp3.003
in order for my mp3 join program to work - it needs them to start with 001 and be in sequence.

The problem is with the filetype needing to be "001" "002" etc. Can it be named in sequence like this?

Thanks

Peter

Hi Peter

FROM:
track1.mp3.002
track2.mp3.003
track3.mp3.004

TO:
track1.mp3.001
track2.mp3.002
track3.mp3.003


DO:

-- menu "Options > Ignore... > File Extensions

-- Remove(5)
Last[3]

becomes:
track1.mp3.
track2.mp3.
track3.mp3.



-- Numbering(10)
Suffix
Start:1
Pad:3

-- Select the files in the NAME column to see what happens in the NewName column

becomes:
track1.mp3.001
track2.mp3.002
track3.mp3.003


-- Rename


HTH? :D

Worked great! - thanks Stefan

The part I was missing was this one
"-- menu "Options > Ignore... > File Extensions"
