May the help aid you:

Replace method
If you want to remove some words or letters from the filename and replace them with something else, you can use this method.

<DirName:X> Inserts the last directory name. eg. "c:\windows\notepad.exe" will give "windows" as result.


Try this (having a backup of your files)...

FROM:
ARTIST\ALBUMNAME\COVER.JPG
ARTIST\ALBUM\folder.JPG
ARTIST\Best Of\cd.JPG
TO:
ARTIST\ALBUMNAME\ALBUMNAME.JPG
ARTIST\ALBUM\ALBUM.JPG
ARTIST\Best Of\Best Of.JPG

RULE:
- match any *.JPG file (use RegEx: ".+JPG")
- reanme with parent folder name (use <DirName:1>) and add literal ".jpg"


USE:
Replace method
Find: ^.+JPG$
Replace: <DirName:1>.JPG
Occ: All
[X]RegEx
Apply to: Name and extension
