Problem with Rename, Move and Copy Files

(1/5) > >>

FKatz:
I am having a problem when I rename, move and copy files.
I have files that I have ripped in a directory N:\Music-New
Once I have decided which ones I want to keep I transfer them to a directory E:\Music-New
I have base path E:\Music-New
Rule : [Artist]\[Album]
Filename rule: [Artist] - [Name] - [Album] - [Track #]

I don't know when it started but it must have been fairly recently but when I rename  and move there are two spaces added before the period separating the filename and extension so if I have
N:\Music-New\Dubliners, The - Farewell To Ireland - 50 Years - 05.flac

When I move it to the E:\Music-New directory, I get

E:\Music-New\Dubliners, The - Farewell To Ireland - 50 Years - 05  .flac

Two spaces have been added after the track number

This didn't used to happen. What's going on and how can I prevent this happening?

Thanks

Frank

Are there spaces at the end of that rule?

Is N: a network drive?  What is it?

Matt:
Next build of MC28:
Changed: Spaces are trimmed from the head and tail of the filename and directory rule in the rename tool.

FKatz:
N: is an external hard drive but I've had the same problem when transferring from an internal drive.

There are no added spaces in the file name. This problem only just started occurring, or should I say I only just noticed it, and I've been using JRiver for about 10 years. I certainly don't intend to pay for an upgrade to solve a problem which shouldn't exist.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong - you keep adding features with very little explanation of what the features do so maybe there is some setting in 27 that has changed from 26 that I am unaware of.

Someone please come up with a solution for this.

Thank you

Frank

Matt:
In the filename and directory rules, make sure you don't have spaces at the end.  That's what we'll trim in v28.
