Inviska Rename

Batch file rename software that supports Unicode filenames and renaming from tags, such as ID3v2 and Exif.
- Inviska Rename is currently (and rapidly!) being developed. Although it doesn't appear to support REGEX substitutions, it handles renaming and tagging (music & photo metadata) easily. GUI is fairly straight-forward, if not a bit dates. One big pleasant surprise: the developer has made it available as an AppImage. Overall, a very good replacement. Craigo • May 2019

I agree with @Oldarney. This application has a terrible interface. I tried using it a number of times, but gave up.

Most cluttered and unintuitive interface i have ever seen, although it is striaght forward. It had problems with accessing some specially weird named files on my HD. this is not for renaming your massive music collection.

Unicode supported!

The best feature of BRU is it supports unicode file/folder names. Though it has a strange interface and it takes some times to understand all things.
