Title: Changing name pattern of raw_rec module?
Post by: katerlouis on January 23, 2014, 05:59:38 PM
Sorry, the search didn't lead me to a solution.
Quick and dirty:

How can I change the name pattern of the raw_rec module?
Consecutive numbers would just suit me better- a combination with the time would be great.

But time with minutes only isn't ideal when making more than one take a minute-



Thx!

You are limited to 8.3 filenames, you're not going to get any kind of date/time including down to minutes to fit in only 8 chars.

files are timestamped anyway, so you don't need to do this, it would be easy to write a shell script to rename the files and append the timestamp to the filename on the computer.
