I've tried to rename all files (jpg and mp4) in one directory using the tag <ExifTool:CreateDate>.
The output of the ExifTool-tag contains invalid characters for the filename. The output format of the tag looks like this: 2013:01:07 20:23:01 The character ':' is invalid for usage in a filename. Is there a chance to use the tag and remove the character ':' out of the string before the AdvancedRenamer tries to rename the file? The usage of the ExifTool-tags is a great idea but the AdvancedRenamer should filter invalid characters before renaming a file... Any solution for this? |

You can add the replace method after the method where you use the exiftool tag, and replace invalid characters with valid ones (like _ or space). |
