You can change the test sequence to avoid the
code duplication
if tf1 == '0000' and tf2 == '0001':
print 'sequence fine'
else
print 'renumber sequence'
for frame in ....etc
As you can see, the only part I haven't figured out is the
actual renumbering. Can't figure out how to do the following:
0017 convert to -> 0001
Instead of splitting and reconstructing you could use a
regex to locate the number section and usere.sub() to replace
the old number with the new sequence number
Not sure if that would be any faster but it might be more
concise.
