Sure, you can use the “do_rename” static function, located at the Phoenix_Media_Rename class. Prototype: do_rename($attachment_id, $new_filename, $retitle = 0, $title_from_post = 0, $name_from_post = 0, $check_post_parent = true ). On success the function returns 1, and on error – the error message. The function do_rename is a static method wrapped inside the Phoenix_Media_Rename class: call it using Phoenix_Media_Rename::do_rename
