NCast Presentation Recorder Reference Manual
5.10.2. Set Recording Filename
The default archived filename is of the form
20071119-143206-001.mp4
which represents the start time of the recording through use of the fields: year, month, day, hours, minutes,
seconds, channel-number, filetype.
This default filename format may be altered to reflect more customized filenames through use of a formatting
string utilizing any of the following codes:
Format String Function
%a Abbreviated weekday name (for example Sun)
%b Abbreviated month name (for example Jan)
%c 4 digit counter
%C 6 digit counter
%d Day of the month (01 to 31)
%H Hour (00 to 23)
%I Hour (01 to 12)
%m month (01 to 12)
%M minute (00 to 59)
%n Channel number (001 to 100)
%p AM or PM
%P am or pm
%S seconds (00 to 61)
%Y year
%% %
For example, if a Presentation Recorder user wishes to create a custom filename for the “Accounting 101”
series of lectures, the following filename formatting string might be used:
Acct101-%Y-%m-%d
This will create filenames of the form:
Acct101-2007-11-19.mp4
Acct101-2007-11-21.mp4
Acct101-2007-11-23.mp4
…
Using this formatting notation, the default value of the format string for standard archive filenames is this:
