FlIPPeR:

Old format: %1 - %2
New format: %2 - %1


dupME:

Old format: %1
New format: %1 dupme


Flipper simply reverses the items across a dash (the first dash).
dupME simply appends " dupme" (3 spaces are [actually] in there) to whatever is there.

FlIPPeR I use regularly.
dupME I'll typically do by hand.

With FlIPPeR, using the existing history is fine, though as I rename I'm likely to do a lot of different renames before needing another FlIPPeR, so it is apt to be lost from history, & just picking it from the Presents is much more efficient.

Everything 1.5.0.1367a adds separate presets for rename and move/copy.

Generally, these presets are not compatible with each other.

Add video resolution to end of filename (ie 480p, 720p, 1080p, 2160p)
Old format: %1
New format: %1.$height:p
(Ignore extension checked)

Add media creation date to filename (if one exists)
Old format: %1
New format: %1.<formatfiletime:$media-created:,"yy.MM.dd">
(Ignore extension checked)

I'm working on some date manipulation presets and will edit this post accordingly. ie
Filename.2024-02-14.jpg --> Filename.24.02.14.jpg
