I Wish ...... that the Channel Name was in the Recorded Program Name

[puck64]

Hi All / Sub,

I would love to see the Channel Name appended to the Recorded File Name Eg.... "Speedweek" on "SBS 1" Currently is output to "G:\Recorded TV\Speedweek_20151129_14011600.ts" This could become "G:\Recorded TV\Speedweek_20151129_14011600 [SBS 1].ts"

The reason being our CH 9 has done some adjustments to its channels (fair enough)

Their old HD Channel was 1440x1080i at 16:9 and MPEG (all is good, all the other HD broadcasts are the same, well almost ... "ABC News 24" is 1280x720 at 16:9 but still MPEG)

9HD is NOW 1920x1080i at 16:9 BUT "AVC" AND "AC3"

I would like to be able to convert the recordings for 9HD to MPEG in postprocessing.bat prior to "Normal" processing.

The only way I can think of identifying 9HD is to have 9HD in the file name.

I don't know why you'd want to convert H.264 to MPEG2. Seems like a crazy backward step to me

The only way I can think of identifying 9HD is to have 9HD in the file name.

I doubt I'll be adding the channel name to the filename any time soon, but are you aware the channel number of the recording is passed to PostProcessing.bat (second parameter)? You could always use this to perform this type of logic.

Hi Sub,

Not a backward step .... just sideways

I hate ads and I use VideoRedo 3 ..... no MP4 there.

I forgot about the Channel Number being passed to the postprocessing.bat
I should take more notice of my tag line :o

BTW. How long till the next release ???????

[stustunz]

Nah its backward

BTW. How long till the next release ???????

Barring anything serious popping up last minute, it'll be released in a few days.
