[Windows] Case-Sensitive Renaming

[toweliechaos]

Apologies for asking something probably blindingly obvious. I have looked around the forum and the web to try and find an answer with no success.

I have just started using Filebot v4.6 to rename my files for compatibility with my RPi2/Kodi 15.1/OpenElec 5.95 setup.

I have been successfully renaming and found a syntax that worked the way I wanted it to i.e. producing this result:

Coogan's Run\Dearth of a Salesman.avi ---> Coogan's run\S01E04. Dearth of a Salesman

I then found the syntax to capitalise each word and it produced the results in the test box. However, when I try to rename the files, I get a little green icon by all the files that already have all capitals, but I get no icon for ones that need renaming. When I tell it to rename, it reports that it has renamed all files. However, it quite obviously doesn't change anything.

Any thoughts? I will try and get some screenshots when I'm at the computer with filebot on!

Windows filesystems are case-insensitive, so Windows will ignore rename operations that only change character casing.

Solution: use FileBot (platform) or move/rename files elsewhere, or use not-Windows
