Naming Convention of songs - Importing songs

[trelynda]

I have a question. I have a folder that contains many songs. If I import the folder into hoster, the current naming convention has the disk name - Song Title, Artist - etc. Is there a way for me to edit the name of the songs in the folder prior to importing to hoster so that when they come into hoster they are imported correctly without having to edit each? Does that make sense? Not sure which is more time consuming, editing in hoster or editing in the original folder priot to importing. Let me know. Thanks

What type of files are they in the folder .zip, mp3+G, wma+g or kma types some other or a complete mixture ?.

Also if they are one type, example all .zip files are they a jumble with some having disc id at beginning and others at the end, some with artist - title others title - artist ?

There are some free file renamers available, let me know what types yours are and I might be able to help.

You can alter Hosters naming convention to suit the files if they all follow the same pattern.

Roy,
I downloaded the bulk rename utility. Every folder has multiple zipped folders and a jumble of disk first or last etc. and associated .kmh folder. When i add to bulk rename utility, i guess it is working on the kmh file but the actual fiels withing the zip are not changed and so if I inport that older, the naming convention has not changed. Please DM me or let me know.
