Batch Rename of unrelated RAW and JPG files have same number

"Can you show before and after naming examples?"
Not anymore. Beforehand, the image names were totally different. I sort the images "By Date Created" and then rename them. The images are not sequential, as my camera and phone clocks are not synchronized.

 

"Can you post a screenshot of the Batch Rename settings?"
Attached

"Did you have both NEF and JPG files selected at the same time?"
Yes.

"What if you use the Filter panel to only show and select one file format before renaming?"
That would defeat the purpose. I want to sort the images By Date Created and then rename them accordingly so the file numbers are also chronological. Thus, images displayed using the OS finder appear in chronological order by default.

OK, thanks for explaining in more detail.

"Did you include the original filename in XMP so that you can recover the initial names?"
No, I don't use that option because I often rename thousands of files at a time and I don't want unnecessary XMP files created just to preserve the original file name, which is meaningless to my workflow.

The preserved filename would only be written to XMP sidecars for the proprietary raw files. You may have these anyway if using Adobe Camera Raw to process the raw files.

DNG or JPEG files would have the preserved filename metadata written directly to XMP in the file itself, not a sidecar.

My Test Results (v2024, Intel Mac):

I just tested with a mixture of raw and jpg file with different names sorting by date and the preview button and the actual rename result was correct, they were all treated as separate files each with a new individual sequence number.
