I have 291 episodes named tv.show.01.mp4 to tv.show.291.mp4 and i want rename them to be named like Tv Show Episode S01E01.mp4. I use Linux so please suggest only FOSS compatible programs
krenamer can do this. It just is a regex front end. You could do it with a shell script too.
That’s what i started using :)
Do you have the means to write your own Python script? If so, that would be a simple way to solve your problem.
you can try rename: https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/rename.1.html
or
rename 's/expression/replacement/' filenameselect range of episodes per season then add season number (eg S01) in replacement string.
then restart numbering for next set of episodes (eg 01 to 12) and add S02. and so on. more tedious than the gui Rename method but doable.
how can you identify season from the file name?
