But it does know which clip to pull the name from. When double-clicking clips on the timeline, the "name clip only" and "name clip and disk file" options only show up when the clip includes all of the parent file. Those options aren't present when the clip contains only a portion of the parent file. So Pro Tools DOES know when the clip is the same as the parent file and could present that option. Since Batch Clip Rename could contain a combinations of sub-clips and full-file clips, there could be options like "rename clip and disk files where possible", "rename clips only", and "warn when some disk files cannot be renamed" etc.; similar to the renaming options at the bottom of the Export Clips as Files dialog box.
