No. the renaming rule don't care about old file-names provided by camera. And
this is true for KDE3 release (just checked).

The file renaming rule is :

- a prefix (can be empty)
+ a sequence number (optional - here this is the problem)
+ date & time (optional)
+ camera name (optional)
+ a suffix (can be empty)

In all case, original file name is never add to file renaming.

In your screen-shot, a sequence number option is disable. All files have the
same name. This is the problem. In fact, sequence number must always enable,
else file renaming is not suitable.
