If you've got a digital camera, song collection, or just a bunch of files you'd like to rename or reorder, but you dread going in and doing it all one file at a time, you need a tool like Batch File Rename. Happy Valentine’s day We’re thrilled to share the next major release of Plexamp with you One major focus in this release was an upgrade of some of the core building blocks of the app (React Native, React Navigation, and many others).The result is a faster, smoother app, which starts more quickly and transitions more smoothly between screens. Batch File Renamer offers a Command Line prompt with CMD and Execute buttons at the bottom of the interface this option should appeal to system admins and the hard-core, old-school types out there. We clicked Start Renaming, and the program quickly did the deed, as we verified by opening the folder to see the changes for ourselves. Next we entered what we wanted to replace and what to replace it with, selected the File Attributes from a handy check box on the interface, and clicked Replace, which previewed the changes in the destination field. We selected LowerCase in the Generate Destination File Names entry field and clicked Generate. The scrolling tree view for browsing to the source destination is a bit awkward a standard file-browsing dialog would be an improvement. The user interface is a compact, efficient job with a single window displaying customizable fields: Dates, Source Filenames, Destination Filenames, Size, and so on. We noted that Batch File Renamer is portable, requiring no formal installation: just click the program file, and it runs. It's very small, totally portable, and free, too.
It can sort file names by name, date, and time, and it previews all changes before making them.

Once you get used to the naming convention and double checking it when uploading media it will quickly become second nature.
Then click the Fetch Data button to choose which online database to search for both renaming and metadata purposes (FileBot supports a range of different music, movie and TV providers). While Plex Media Server is easy to use, it takes a little care to set it up properly. Simply drag in the files you wish to rename in batches: movies, multiple episodes from the same TV show or music tracks from a single artist. By using the recommended format, Plex will look up the needed information then identify the content accurately, helping you a maintain a more organized, useable Plex for music, movies, TV shows, and other content. Many MP3 will include metadata so you won’t have to do anything, others do not. Separate albums and add tracks if they are separate. The same approach applies to music as TV shows.

When uploading media to your Plex Media Server, you need to use a specific naming convention to enable the system to categorize and identify the media correctly.
And if the media doesn’t appear there, or is formatted differently, it won’t appear properly in Plex. Plex uses the as the bases for naming shows.
