XnView Software

Not sure if this is a bug, a possible enhancement or a lack of understanding:

I wanted to remove a bracketed number from a group of filesnames e.g.

K5__6317 (10576).JPG -> K5__6317.JPG
K5__6324 (11206).JPG -> K5__6324.JPG

In Batch Rename, I tried:

Replace: K5__#### (#####)
With: K5__####

and

Replace: K5__#### (#####).JPG
With: K5__####.JPG

and

Replace: (#####)
With: [field left blank]

How do I do this?

I suppose that you need Wildcards and RegEx (regular expressions) http://www.google.com/search?sitesearch ... 20&bih=923 for this job - and I believe that XnView has some limits.

Maybe take a look here: Recommended File-Rename-Tools?
