A Windows commandline tool to automatically rename GoPro files more sensibly, written in PureBasic.
The GoPro file naming convention makes it impossible to sort video files alphabetically as chapter names come before video serial names. This tool lets you automatically rename those files to sort better.
Run the .exe file from a Windows commandline and it will tell you how to use it.
