Thanks, that's the tool I used, too. I only have got one problem, I don't get the regex commands of calibre.

My cbz-files do have this name pattern: [Author A (pseudonym if available)] Title YXZ [random tag: e.g. translated] (<-- square brackets!)

As it does not work with this regex expression "(?P<author>[^_]+) - (?P<title>.+)", I had to either change the regex or the name. Sadly, I wasn't able to change the regex (though I tried), because I don't quite understand this stuff. So I had to change the names, but this is kinda time consuming.

Is there a way to change the regex so it fits the required pattern? Sorry for having a lot of questions .

PS: It does suffice if calibre can extract the whole author part. I can re-tag the pseudonyms later manually T.T, shouldn't take me thaaat long ^^'.

Many thanks! (I will try to understand this regex stuff, too, could be useful *sigh*)
