Bug Report Failure to Notify on Invalid Filename

[SeriousSirrus]

This is a fairly quick and simple bug report. The way file outputs are named with OBS tend to include a parentheses and a number whenever a similarly named file already exists at the same location.

Noticing this, I decided to include a parenthetical in one of the files.
When the recording was started and stopped, OBS did not output a file.

This only seems to happen if the file has the parentheses in it, leading me to believe that either OBS is failing to notify me that parenthetical files are not a valid file-name, or something about parentheses causes the program to simply not output a file-path. Either way it seems like something that should be fixed.

Invalid file names are replaced with the current date / time.

I wonder why the file didn't save then?

It's supposed to create date/time files if the file names are invalid, but if it doesn't then it could be a bug. I would recommend just typing the directory along and removing the file name from the path to make it generate a time-based file name

After creating a blank file intentionally, not only did that file show up with the date and time-stamps as it was intended, but previous videos that had not shown up to that point appeared in that folder as well. Not sure quite what happened but problem seems to have resolved itself. Thank you for the assistance.
