I would like to move some fields around and add dashes between a few but not others. also I would like to know if there is a way to grab all fields after a certain field.
Example
filename: Grimm - S01E02 season of the hexbeast.mkv
I have other episodes that are of various lengths
I have tried
(?x)(.*) - (?x)(.*) (?x)(.*) (?x)(.*) (?x)(.*) (?x)(.*) (?x)(.*) (?x)(.*)
replace
\1 - \2 - \3 \4 \5 \6 \7 \8

I get wierd results with dashes after the .mkv i.e. .mkv -
also is there a way to not have to have all 8 fields if I want to say leave everything after field 5 the same.
thank you

Here's an example with 3 fields (do not copy the single quotes when copy/paste to the customer renaming creator):

Row: 1
Search: '(?E)^(.*?) [-] (.*?) (.*)'
Replace: '\2 - \1 - \3'

Changes:
Grimm - S01E02 season of the hexbeast.mkv

To:
S01E02 - Grimm - season of the hexbeast.mkv

Use (.*) at the end to grab all fields after a certain field.

Hope that helps.
