@void, Would you entertain the idea of stacking multiple rename operations into a single batch process? I understand the current interface doesn't really make this practical, but experimentally, should it be very complicated (GUI aside)?
Experimentally, I'd propose the single syntax string: s/<from-pattern>/<to-pattern>/;s/<from-pattern>/<to-pattern>/;... as in:
s/\.+/\s/;s/(.*)\s((?:19|20)\d\d)/\1\s\(\2\)/;s/DUBBED/ENGLISH/
Request: Advanced Copy/Move/Rename regex stacking
Re: Request: Advanced Copy/Move/Rename regex stacking
I will consider an option to do this.
Thank you for the suggestion.
This will most likely need to be another UI dialog.
"advanced advanced rename"
with a single format edit.
or, maybe an option to toggle multiple patterns.
I would like to keep the advanced renamer as simpler as possible.
For now, run the advanced renamer multiple times.

Re: Request: Advanced Copy/Move/Rename regex stacking
Yeah, I don't have a very good sales pitch. I understand probably fewer than a thousand Everything users have used the Advanced Renamer, and probably fewer than 10 of them know Regex, and I might be the only one of them who has a use for batched sequences. 
But if you were to add an experimental multiple passes batch renaming from a single input, I wouldn't be upset if that sequence were inputted into the "Old Format" editbox, and I just left the "New Format" editbox blank and ignored.
