Renamed

ReNamed is a simple, terminal-based C tool that helps you automatically rename and organize episodes of TV shows — including specials — with clean, consistent filenames.

💡 What it Does

This utility scans a folder of video files (or optionally any files), detects the episode numbers using a variety of common patterns, and renames them based on a user-supplied show name. Special episodes (like OVAs, bonus content, or labeled "SP") are detected and moved into a separate Specials/ subfolder.

🛠️ How to Use

1. Download the file

   curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Panonim/ReNamed/refs/heads/main/main.c

2. Compile the program:

   gcc -o renamed main.c

3. Run it:

   ./renamed

4. Follow the prompts:

   • Enter the show name (e.g., Attack on Titan)
   • Enter the path to the folder with episodes
   • Review the renaming plan
   • Confirm whether to proceed

Optionally put it inside /usr/local/bin to use it anywhere

⚙️ Options

You can also use flags:

• -v Show version info
• -h Show usage instructions
• -f Force mode – includes all files, not just video formats (.mp4, .mkv, .avi)

Example:

./renamed -f

🧠 Features

• Detects and extracts episode numbers from various common naming styles
• Groups and handles specials (e.g., OVA, SP, Bonus) separately
• Skips renaming if the episode number can't be detected
• Shows a full preview of all renames before making changes
• Interactive confirmation step before any file is renamed
• Optionally works on any file type with -f

📂 Example

Say you have:

Attack_on_Titan_E01.mkv
Attack_on_Titan_Special_01.mp4
Attack_on_Titan_E02.mkv

After running the tool, the folder becomes:

Attack on Titan - 01.mkv
Attack on Titan - 02.mkv
Specials/
  Attack on Titan - 01 - Special.mp4
