Topic: dupes
Hi.
While renaming pictures using EXIF information, dupes appear from time to time. How can I automatically avoid errors?
E.g. is it possible to add "_dup" to the basename instead of creating an error?
Thanks,

Hi Georges, welcome.
In Siren press the F1-key
and search for> coll
and you can read
%nc : the selection number relative to a name "collision"
(same beginnings)
the expression part following "%nc" is not taken into
account.
for example, with the expression: %dmd_%nc.%e

Image3.jpg 01/01/2004 20040101_002.jpg

%ncs : same principle as "%nc" except that it is empty for
the first element of the "collision group" and prefixed
by a "_" for the others.
for example, with the expression: %dmd%ncs.%e
File Modif date Result

%ncf : Same as "%nc" except that the path is not taken into
account. Only the file name parts are compared
%ncfs: Same as "%ncs" but on the file name parts
I would use %ncs
This How to mentioned this behaviour too:
http://scarabee.software.free.fr/forum/ … php?id=112
The variables "%nc" and "%ncs" give a unique value avoiding
name "collisions".
Use an expression like: Planet_Mars_%Xdo%ncs.jpg
HTH?
Find me: renaming error duplicate duplicates pairs same name dublikat doppelt double twice two of a kind zweimal doublement géminé, géminée même pair identique, identique nom de fichier
Hi Georges, welcome.
...
HTH?
It did. Thanks a lot!
Would have been surprised if Rémi would not have included such a feature!
