Deluge/Radarr/Sonarr...How to best delete release group naming BEFORE the filename? (lemmy.world)

Hi guys!

So...Yeah. I have your average Deluge/Sonarr/Radarr combo. What I'm finding increasingly annoying is, these days some release groups are putting their names more frequently BEFORE the filename. This makes it rather hard to find even the folders of the files being downloaded. Is there an easy way to address this? I'd like to keep the rest of the things in the filename there, and maybe even the release group name...but at the end of the file. The most important thing, the filename should come first. How to best do this?

Thanks!

I want to say Sonarr has a regex renaming feature, but I may just be making that up as I'm not looking at my instance right now. Doing whatever renaming based on a pattern would be preferable during the download phase in order to keep the metadata of each service clean.

Failing that, if you have a predictable list of release group strings you want removed from filenames, a one liner with sed or similar would take care of this. You'd then break the known locations of these files by any service tracking them of course, but they will eventually be reindexed.
