ImageGrabLite - name change while watching recording

[liteswap]

If I'm watching a recording while it's being broadcast, and the broadcast then finishes while I'm still watching it, IGL can't access the file to rename it. Logical, I guess, as that would break the stream. It's shown as an access error in the logs.

Is there a way, Martin, to check for such an access error (or maybe there's another flag you can check) and delay the rename until it's no longer being watched?

I remember that johnsonx42 posted a batch file snippet for this however I am not planning on queuing these requests..

I'm sure I could come up with something that worked, such as attempting a rename every 30 seconds or so and continuing until it's successful. Does iGL generate an errorlevel or exit code, to save me writing cumbersome code to parse the logs?

Update
OK, found the reference: http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...ight=batch and go to forum post 6 or use this code snippet (thanks to johnsonx42):

Code:

rem ********************************************************************
rem This is for NPVR post-processing.bat
rem Checking to see if the video file is being watched
rem
REM ok, ready to rename the file... but first check to make sure no one is watching it!
REM try renaming the file to the same name, see if gets an error

:checkopen
rem Try to rename file but with unchanged name
ren %1 "%~nx1"
if errorlevel 1 goto waitandcheck
goto rename

:waitandcheck
REM if we got here, the rename failed so wait a minute and try again
sleep 60
goto checkopen

:rename
rem rename the file by running imageGrabLite
