Awesome plugin! I just have two questions:
  1. Is there is any possibility that you could add the ability for %TITLE & %EXECUTABLE to work when using Game Capture as a source?
  2. Is %CCY actually supposed to be %CCYY?

@errornosignal game capture should work. If it is not working can you provide an OBS log file from that session?
I was able to get it working. For some reason a separate window capture was taking precedence over the game capture. I just deleted the window capture, and the file rename picked up the values correctly.

Could you create a dock panel so that the output folder for recordings can be changed? Another plugin, it's an idea.

Hello there, I was able to use %Title, but sometimes, i record PIP (picture in picture) the file i get will be named PictureinPicture sadly, so i basically have 2 sources in obs one is a window source which captures the PIP and audio source which captures the tab, how can I rename the output based on the audio source not the window source

I can't get the plugin to work.
I get the dialog window when I stop recording, but it doesn't rename the file.

Is anyone else having this issue?

So is there a way to also automatically rename a folder, like obs makes maps for me with this in the title form factor
%DD-%MM-%CCYY Time %hh.%mm\ %DD-%MM-%CCYY Time %hh.%mm,%ss
This makes it that I get my date and time under each other, now the rename plugin renames the files but the folder is still named by OBS.
Can i make it so the created folder is called like( example) Battlefield 6, and it renames the file ofcourse just like normal with the renamer?

Is there a way to just auto accept file renaming ? I mostly record replay's and mostly for 1 game at the time and i rather change the name after i start a new game then every time i save a replay from 1 min to accept that popup?
For the rest this is the best plugin ever made!
 
Feature request: Add the ability for a formatting option to readfrom a scene item source.

I use the split file for all my recordings. It would be a nice feature if i am able to group the records by looking at the file names. So, if i can set a scene item text (e.g. Group A) before recording

Filea_group1.mkv
Fileb_group1.mkv
Filec_group1.mkv
Filed_group1.mkv

Filee_group2.mkv
Filef_group2.mkv

Fileg_group3.mkv
Fileha_group3.mkv

Appreciate it if you are able to implement this request or have suggestions on how this object can be achieved with current version

Please ignore this request... Found another way to do this.

outputTimecode from both GetStreamStatus and GetRecordStatus would make great additions to filename formats.

For replay buffers it would identify the moment in the larger stream/recording that a clip came from. And if you can capture it the moment before recording/stream ends then for the larger recording it would just be the length of the whole thing

Would this also work with the screencapture files, specifically those created through actions within advanced scene switcher?

I'm having an issue with this plugin.
Whenever i finish a long recording the plugin won't rename my file.
But whenever I test it out with a short recording (just a few seconds/minutes) it works fine.
