I'm looking for an option to add padding to filenames.  Since some music players don't support .m3u or other playlist formats, my only resort is to add sequential numbers to the front of the files.  Musicbee has this ability via its Send To -> Folder (Copy) -> Copy Files to Folder Feature.

This works perfectly when my playlist has less than 100 files in it.  The first nine file names have zeros padded to the names so they are ordered sequentially (i.e. 01, 02, 03, 04, ... 09) when sorted by name.  The filenames after that have no padding (10, 11, 12 ... 99).

When I have over 100 files, I also need the ability to add an additional zero to those files less than 100 (i.e. 011, 012, 013 ... 099)).  Otherwise, music players group the the files in the wrong order based on their leading number (11, 101, 102, ...110).  Right now I have to use a program like "Bulk Filename Utility" to pad zeros on to the files from 10-99.  I'd like the ability, within Musicbee, to add a 0 pad to the file name when the number of files to be Sent exceeds 99.

Hey All,

I've got a car radio that doesn't read M3U files but does understand file structure and organization.  Based on this I would like to create a plugin that can read a playlist, export the appropriate mp3 files in the playlist to a separate folder and add leading numbers to each file that align with the track sequence in the playlist.

Right now I have to do this with a program like Bulk Filename Utility using RegEx and it is a pain.
