Can you rename a movie file

I have a 3D DVD of Avatar. I already have the 4K version ripped to my hard drive. When I try and rip the 3D version, it says that the file already exists and asks if I want to overwrite it. Of course, I don't. Is there a way to rename it, so it creates a separate new version? I'm somewhat of a ripping newbie so excuse if it's a silly question. Thanks.

Yes, when you're loading the file, you can click on the title you want to rip, and select the name to edit.
This assumes you've turned on "Expert mode" in your configuration, and know that the name becomes a pull-down which lets you edit a lot more stuff. You can leave the Title the same, but change the Filename to be something different. The default is to use the Title as the filename, though...
