I would like to rename my video files as per the resolution they are in, e,g for a video 'bla bla.mp4' in 1080p, I would like to rename it to 'bla bla [H.264 1080p]. The script should automatically be able to detect the resolution of the video, and also if the file has been already renamed it should not rename it.I wasn't able to find a way to check for the resolution, so I tried to use this for 1080p files:
FOR /r %%a in (*.mp4) DO (IF EXIST *[H.264*.mp4 (
ECHO Already done)
ELSE (
REN "%%~a" "%%~na [H.264 1080p].mp4"))
But what it does is it checks for the same file again and again which has already been renamed and therefore the reply always is 'Already done'.
This question is beyond the scope of an SO question. Nevertheless I will answer it, because today is sunday.

before the rename
command, remove it if the output looks goodrename script:
@echo off & setlocal
cd X:\video\path
for /f "delims=" %%i in ('dir /b /a-d *.mp4') do (
set "fnameo=%%~ni"
set "fnamee=%%~xi"
set "Height="
for /f "delims=" %%j in ('mediainfo "--Inform=Video;%%Height%%" "%%~i"') do set "Height=%%j"
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
call set "selftest=%%fnameo:[H.264 !Height!p]=%%"
if "!selftest!" equ "!fnameo!" if not exist "!fnameo! [H.264 !Height!p]!fnamee!" (
echo rename "!fnameo!!fnamee!" "!fnameo! [H.264 !Height!p]!fnamee!"
)
endlocal
)
output example:
rename "Handbrake.0.9.8.mp4" "Handbrake.0.9.8 [H.264 800p].mp4" rename "Hybrid.2012.10.21.1.mp4" "Hybrid.2012.10.21.1 [H.264 800p].mp4" rename "Womble.mp4" "Womble [H.264 1080p].mp4"
