Please give me help for renaming:

Original-Name from camera (for example) 21-02-28_4711
that is TT-MM-YY_number

Change to (for example) TIM-00100
that is free-chosen name - starting nr., 5 digits, ascending in steps by (for example) 100

so : TIM-00100
TIM-00200
TIM-00300

and so on....


Thank you.

Hi Carlos,

One "New name" method:
New name: TIM-<IncNrDir:00100:100>
Apply to: Name

Is that what you mean?

The <IncNrDir> tag creates a new incrementing number sequence for each file. The number after the first colon ":" tells ARen what number to start with. The number after the second colon is the step amount.

If you wanted to keep the date part you could use one "Renumber" method:
Number position: 4
Change to: Absolute number
New number: 00100
Zero padding: Manual
Number length: 5
Apply to: Name

The "Number position:" tells ARen which "number group" to use. The date uses the first three number groups, so 4 tells ARen to use the number after the "_". The rest should be self-explanatory... (That wouldn't change the underscore to a dash, but that's a simple replace).

Best,
DF
