Probably for SUB?

I know you don't like getting involved with batch files, so I'm only including the command that's relavant.

"C:\Program Files\PuTTY\plink.exe" -ssh -pw ????? user@IPaddress ls "/usr/local/bin/  > /volume1/Volume_1/PostBatchLog.txt" > "C:\users\john\PostBatchLog.txt"

It's a simple command to output a directory from my NAS.

If I put this command in PostCancel.bat, and execute the batch file directly in windows, it works fine.
If I have it run automatically after canceling a recording it doesn't work.

Why don't you post a set of logs (from the button on the settings page) covering a recording cancellation which you think is not working properly?

The particular command I posted isn't acting on a specific  recording, it's just listing a directory on my NAS box.
I didn't want to post the contents of the entire batch file and make it more confusing.

It seems as though whatever mechanism sub uses for post processing, it doesn't like that command.
If he can't easily reproduce the problem I'll send whatever logs he wants.

I just realized I added the PostBatchLog.txt twice.
It should have read"

"C:\Program Files\PuTTY\plink.exe" -ssh -pw ????? user@IPaddress ls "/usr/local/bin/ > /volume1/Volume_1/PostBatchLog.txt"

I'm guessing the problem has to do with the placement of the quotes?
I've tried several variations.

In the end postcancel.bat is just a batch file executed with the authority/permissions under which NPVR is running.
Your quotes placement looks fine to me for creating the output file on the NAS.
Key thing is any error messages when you say "it doesn't work" and contents of NPVR logs during the cancel process.

Here are the log files.

The PostCancel.bat file only contains the line of code I posted.
After canceling a recording there is no PostBatchLog.txt file created.

If I execute the batch file directly in Windows the log file is created with the contents listing all the files in the  /usr/local/bin/  directory.
