I have mp3 files like {01_abdc.mp3 ; 02_sabbath.mp3} and {01-abdc.mp3 ; 04-pork.mp3} and {12.black.mp3 ; 21.progressive.mp3}


whatever, my question is simple: how can I substitute these - . _ characters only after numbers, to change it to a space ( )?
I tried "\d-" ---> "\d " but was not able to match the number.

Thanks.

Use the replace method and configure it like this:

Text to be replaced: (\d+)[-._]
Replace with: \1
Use regular expressions: Checked
Apply to: Name

Remembet there is a blank space after \1. I think this will work for you.

OMG, You are such an wizard! That really helps a lot and a lot.
I triend to extend it to space-separated characters ( - ) but i could not, i mean, that's not a problem anymore i just insert a new Replace with that (and so that is no big trouble).

Thanks again!
