I use KRename for renaming multiple files.

You can take a look at “sonarr”, it’s made for managing your tv-shows and it can automatic rename and organize your files, with customizable naming schem.

how can you identify season from the file name?

Dolphin has that ability built in. If you use it, highlight all of the episodes and press f2. Pretty self explanatory from there.

krenamer can do this. It just is a regex front end. You could do it with a shell script too.

you can try rename: https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/rename.1.html

or
rename 's/expression/replacement/' filename

select range of episodes per season then add season number (eg S01) in replacement string.

then restart numbering for next set of episodes (eg 01 to 12) and add S02. and so on. more tedious than the gui Rename method but doable.

I use nomino for this purpose.

If the names don’t have any break for seasons, or the name of the episode, I think it’s going to take a couple steps. Renaming is easy, but you’re adding info that’s not in the name. I can only suggest trying something like tvnamer, or search for a similar project.

There are various GUI tools (eg., gprename, krename) but I prefer qmv, a CLI tool from the renameutils package. It opens filenames into a vim (or your default editor) session, with which you can use global regex search/replace commands to rename files.

Do you have the means to write your own Python script? If so, that would be a simple way to solve your problem.

This can be done natively in Thunar if you happen to use XFCE.

Why not just do this with a for loop in the terminal? I don’t think you need to over complicate it by downloading another program.
