Possible to combine EXIF and RANDOM in one action?

Is it possible to set a single action that will rename JPG files as follows:

%datetime%_%random%%ext%

?

I'd like to use the random 8-digit string to allow renaming large collections of jpgs where some will have the same %datetime% and therefore won't otherwise be renamed.

The only way I've found to do so is as two separate actions, first renaming to %random% and then renaming to %datetime%_%name%

Thanks!

Hi,
Indeed currently it has to be done in two separate actions.
Maybe it will change in the future, but it is not a high priority anyway.
