How to bulk rename with a randomised number prefix?

Postby Mothee » Mon Apr 14, 2025 1:47 pm

Hi. First of all, I'm very sorry, if this is the wrong topic. If so, I can delete this and move to how-to. But I have a problem

I've downloaded about 122 mp3 files, for my car's media center. You know, a simple playlist. Problem is, a lot of the songs get bunched up. I am completely new to BRU and I'm getting a headache trying to figure out how to add a prefix that is a randomized number so that the file order is randomized. Any help is appreciated and any patience with me is appreciated even more.

4007 -> How to rename on random mode.


Oh, & your car (radio) itself my have a random playback mode.
(In my case, while does have a "random" mode, it always plays in the same randomized mode ;-).)

For example use Add(7) > Prefix set to <randnum>- (- will be the separator).
