Automatically manage Import and Sort duplicates

[Ragnar]

Hi,

Just found this function Import and Sort. Awesome!

Until now I have been using different software (Breeze Downloader Pro) with the unique task of importing and renaming my images and videos but this looks like XnViewMP can perform the task so I'll be using a single software now (and that other software has not been working lately). Yeah!

In that software there was a way to automatically manage duplicate file names with something like this:

Code: Select all

{Y}-{m}-{D} {H}.{M}.{S}{if,{l}, #{l},}

The tag {l} is a 'uniqueness' number. It is empty if the filename is unique.
In other words:

• if I have a single image that would end up being renamed "2025-06-11 12.00.00.jpg" then that's the name it will get.
• if I have a two images that would end up being renamed "2025-06-11 12.00.00.jpg" then they will be named "2025-06-11 12.00.00 #1.jpg" and "2025-06-11 12.00.00 #2.jpg"

Now, this software uses a {if} statement which then can be used for other use cases.

What I'm wondering is: is it possible to replicate that feature?
If the {if} statement is too complex, maybe just a 'uniquess' numeric enumerator?

I hope my request is clear and make sense. Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks!

Note: Also, is there a way to save the file extension as lowercase?
