I can basically blitz through the site (or select authors) in no time at all if I stick to a relatively generic naming sequence (01, 02, 03, etc) and simply include a TOC file with the respective lesson titles and their corresponding numbers. Or I can copy the titles and name each file accordingly. So would you rather access to more, faster - or should I be titling each and every file? For perspective: a 50 lesson tutorial with 'long form' file naming took me a few hours. A 70 lesson tutorial with short form naming took me about 15 minutes.
I think the lessons should be named properly. And to help you do that faster there is some auto renaming software. Tag and Rename is one of them but there are more.
Auto renaming wouldn't help me much as there's nothing to pull the naming from. Files come in as page_title-1.mp4 — and some of those folders have 70+ files.
