Hello, I've used AdvRen in the past, but lost the tool. I juste re-descovered it.
I used it, as a test, on files with the same length to remove part of the file's name.
Ex.:
[ShowName].[S01E01].[encoder].[Encoding].[Sound].[...].mkv to [ShowName].[S01E01].mkv
using the method "Remove"
While it's great with files the same length, but, which method should I use if file looks like :
[ShowName].[S01E01].[EpisodeName].[Encoder].[EncodingFormat].[...].mkv
Ex :
Transformers - S01E01 - More than Meets the Eyes (part 1) - NezCroEncoding - 1080p - SuperSound - ....mkv
Transfermers - S154E12 - Jumping Gears - NezCroEncoding - 1080p - SuperSound - ....mkv

I'll try the "remove pattern" method to see what it does !
