i would love to be able to nest each selected file in a self titled folder, for example.
C://movie.mp4

changed to
C://movie/movie.mp4

Re: Move file to same named folder

First to put a checkmark inside the menu "Renaming Options, Advanced Options, Allow Using '\' in Renaming Criteria".
Inside Filters(12) to remove any checkmark from 'Folders', and use whatever 'Mask' you want like *.mp4 for mp4-files.
Inside RegEx(1) to put a checkmark in "v2", so then using a 'Match' and 'Replace' like...
(.*)
$1\\$1

Nice! 8)

Just for interest, you can also use "Simple" regex with

Match: %1
Replace: %1\%1

Automatically stack photos by capture time

Lightroom Classic can automatically stack photos in a folder or a collection based on their capture time. You specify a duration between capture times to create a new stack. For example, suppose you specify 1 minute for the duration. All contiguous photos with capture times less than 1 minute apart are grouped in one stack. A new stack is created when the next contiguous photo has a capture time that is 1 minute or more later than the previous photo's capture time. In turn, the new stack groups contiguous photos with capture times less than 1 minute apart from each other, and so forth.

You can specify a duration between capture times of 0 seconds to 1 hour. Specifying shorter durations creates more stacks. Specifying longer durations creates fewer stacks.


Can this be done with BRU?

basically need to
1. Look at timestamp of all selected files (*.jpg)
2. IF two or more files have timestamp that differ by specified number of seconds e.g. 10 seconds
- create folder with name of first file (or random generated)
- put this files into newly created folder

i meant timestamp of files should differ by NO MORE than specified number of seconds e.g. 10 seconds.
In other words time passed between creating this files is no more than 10 seconds.
