Something like this
files = dir('*.jpg');
for i = 1:numel(files)
old_name = files(i).name;
new_name = strrep(old_name, 'frame', 'image');
movefile(old_name, new_name)
end

Hi,
what am I doing wrong here?
Code:
files = dir('*.jpg ');
for i = 1:numel(files )
frame = files(i).name ;
image = strrep(frame , ' ', '');
movefile(frame, image )
end
Error:
Error using movefile
Cannot copy or move a file or directory onto itself.
Error in frametoimage (line 9)
movefile(frame, image )

Sorry, there was a mistake. Check the updated code. Also, does the old file names should start with the frame, all lower case.
