in 9aca1b0bed3396d01e082c113f65971__e67056a3a1549aa5211b3ad7e212039f__004d.flv.flv.flv

 

how can i select for only whatever is between" __ "and ".flv"

 

so i would end up with 004d ?

 

the above filename is experiment gone horribly wrong....i was attempting to add random letters to protect my videos from ripped in sequence.

Are you using this on multiple file names? If so, and most of them appear towards the end, this pattern will suit you well:

 

<pre>
<?php
preg_match('/^.+__(.+?)(?=\.flv)/', '9aca1b0bed3396d01e082c113f65971__e67056a3a1549aa5211b3ad7e212039f__004d.flv.flv.flv', $matches);
print_r($matches);
?>
</pre>
