[QUOTE="PC_Pal68, post: 273554, member: 25365"] I've downloaded a free prog: Advance Renamer. It seamed "powerfull" enough to do the renaming job I need. It does parent renaming. Good thing. Il be able to batch rename all my artist's folder.jpg to artistname.jpg and them save the image files to \thumbs\music\artist. I just thought of one thing. I actually might not want to directly rename the files.Perhaps I should keep a copy of folder.jpg. It works fine in shares and who knows if MP will use those "artist folder.jpg" in db view correctly in the futur. What I really want is to copy + rename to new location. So I need the <NameDir> fonction but I also need the fonction that would enable me to copy and specify the new dir or path. It doesn't look like Advance Renamer will enable me to copy and rename or to change the dir of the "newly named files". So bassically I want: - foler.jpg to stay where they are - rename <NameDir> and copy/save the "newly named files" in thumbs\music\artist. I'm not sure I'll find a "all in one" solution that will enable me to do all of this. Can someone think of a process or workflow (involving perhaps multiple prog) that would result in what I am looking for? Regards. [/QUOTE]
