I have over 3,000 files that I am trying to rename
I like to remove the album name from the file name
10,000 Maniacs - Blind Man's Zoo - 01 - Eat for Two.mp3 to
10,000 Maniacs - Eat for Two.mp3
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Copy the following into the search/replace columns of the Custom Renaming Creator Panel (do not include the single quotes):

Row: 1
Search: '(.*)-(.*)-(.*)-(.*)'
Replace: '\1-\4'

Press scan, then if you like what you see in the preview list, press rename and sit back as your 3000 files get renamed!

Peter.
