Hi,

I have some MP3 files in the naming format '[MP3]-name (remix).mp3'

I would like it to be 'name.mp3' getting rid of the [ ] and ( ), the text inside of them, and the -

Everytime I try to rename I can't get rid of the [ ] or the ( ) but it does remove the text inside of them.

Thank you in advance.

If you look under the predefined regex list there is a selection for 'Delete Brackets and their content'. If you select that and insert you will be half way there. Then you just need the next row to remove any leading dashes.
Copy and paste the information below into the Custom Renaming Creator list (do not include the single quotes).

Row: 1
Search: '(?x) [\{\(\[]+.*?[\]\}\)]+ # delete brackets + contents'
Replace:
Row: 2
Search: '^[-]'
Replace:

Press scan and watch the preview list appear. if you like what you see then press 'Rename'.

Hope this helps.

Peter.
