how to remove a varying chunk of text

Support
#1

hiya! great software (obviously).
would it be possible to rename files like this?

111 - 99,33 - asdasd.mp3 --> asdasd.mp3
222 - 100 - cdecde.mp3 --> cdecde.mp3
123 - 174,8 - fghfgh.mp3 --> fghfgh.mp3

like remove the "XXX - YYY - " filename prefix. and I can't use the action to remove chars from the left, because the number of them varies, so I would need like a more sophisticated approach. please help :slight_smile:

#2

here you go:

Converter: Tag - Filename
Formatstring: $regexp(%_filename%,(.?) - (.?) - (.*?),$3)

#3

Convert | Filename - Filename | ALT+3

Select format string

Old filename pattern:
%1 - %2 - %3

New filename pattern:
%3

Preview
asdasd.mp3
