Add ability to choose file naming scheme
-
Currently, all pics/vids are saved with the name format CameraName_DateTime, such as 'Driveway_01_20180510115044.mp4'. When saving multiple cameras to the same central FTP target, things can get screwy with sorting. While one can choose to sort by create date, this needs to be done on a folder-by-folder basis. Kind of a hassle.
If the user had the option to choose the filename scheme, it would allow for simpler sorting, ie the default 'sort by name' of most file browsers would show files also sorted by date-time.
Rather than
Door 10AM
Door 2PM
Door 11PM
Driveway 9AM
Driveway 1PM
one could see
Driveway 9AM
Door 10AM
Driveway 1PM
Door 2PM
Door 11PM
and be able to scroll forward through time. Again, one can certainly just re-sort the folder view, but it needs to be done per folder.
It's a long shot, certainly low-pri, but being able to create a custom filename structure would be nice. Something similar to MP3 tags or date pickers, such "T - a - t" or "N - YYYYMMDD-HHmm" etc. -
