With the latest version 3.4, use RegEx (1):

Match : %1@%2
Replace: %2

Tick the Simple checkbox to use Simple regex.

Thx appreciate the response. Do you know how I would include the Simple feature in the brc.exe command line tool since I am trying to batch script the file renaming?

It (the alternative Regex library) doesn't exist for BRC.

Is there any way to chop the filename based on how i need it using the BRC command line tool?

Greetings! Command line is scheduled for "BRC Support" forum, but for the command line it can be like this

Code: Select all

brc64.exe /pattern:*.mp4 /nodup /regexp:@(.*):\1: /execute

Thanks very much, worked perfectly.

Ah, so in this case, it is very similar (looking & in concept).
(Though don't know I'd have come up with the actual regex: to do it, or certainly not as easily, quickly.)
