Hiya folks,
I'm failing to find the parameter I would need to strip a numeric sequence from a filename
ie: ImageAnimationSequence.0034.exr
preferably the file extension too.
I'm passing the parameters to my exe
"%P%O-9000.%E" "%T%O.mp4" -speed 60
Which is fine to strip the extension and replace it with .mp4 but the final output file is coming in with the sequence number of the source image.
It's just a QOL thing for me. I manually rename the result every time, but after years of doing this so many times a day I can't help but think there must be a parameter way for me to be even lazier.
Filename under cursor Parameter "without numeric sequence"?

The options to cut names are not available for the parameter of a button/user command.
The best for you would be to create an intermediate script (dos, powershell,...) to handle file name conversion and call your convertion utility.

Ah OK. Thank you for the fast reply there. At least I know that now and can stop wondering
