Screwy Recording Folder Name.........01052020 (D/M/Y)

Post by maduro »

Guys, I have an IPM-721S and when it records a video after sensing motion, it puts the recording in a folder with this crazy format Day/Month/Year. It's useless. I can't seem to find a way to change it to Year/Month/Day. Any help would be appreciated. Thanx.

Bad Day/Month/Year Formatted Folders:
Front Door_IPC_0_02042020
Front Door_IPC_0_06042020
Front Door_IPC_0_08042020
Front Door_IPC_0_09042020
Front Door_IPC_0_11042020
Front Door_IPC_0_12042020
Front Door_IPC_0_14042020

Well, I was able to find my own solution for the stupid folder naming. DDMMYYYY.......WTF!!!! I found a nice app called Rename Master that allows you to create a rule to move certain characters in a folder/file name and to another location. Its quite flexible and powerful. As you can see in the pic(attached) it gives you a preview of how the new name will look like.

Its too bad Amcrest can't seem to figure out the customer need for such a simple yet important feature.
