RecORDER 1.6

[PixlPixi]

Hello,


Good to hear you found the issue - normally you should run OBS as an administrator (to avoid issues with the process permissions and such), so I just coded it this way and assumed most people would run it this way, my bad.
About this unicode character - sadly is not supported even in normal windows files (see below), so I cannot really counteract it, although I agree it looks better than YY-MM-DD or any other format, but I can only assume it has a special meaning inside of Windows or any OS at this point.

Also, worth noting and it's kind of my own fault - I experimented a lot with the script between the versions, so it caused some discrepancies and bugs, but right now I'm working on releasing a script version that should work, I should be done soon, because the tests are looking good.

I also hadn't been checking this forum much as of late, but I'm glad to see that my feature request was implemented. I can't wait to try it out now so thank you for all your hard work on this script.

As for the unicode issue I knew that the regular : symbol couldn't be used by windows file system for naming files, but I found a special character that looks almost identical and did work for a time when using this script and it broke at some point either from an update or some other setting I had changed. It was called a modifier letter colon and it's character map code was U+A789 and it looks like a smaller version of the standard : only it is supported by windows for file names. If it's too big of a hassle to fix then I understand, you've already done enough work making this script in the first place and I greatly appreciate that.

Hope it will work for you.

As for the character - maybe it can work in the newest version of the script, because I changed the function to move from `os.rename` to `shutil.move` but afaik they are using the same methods, so might not work at all.
I cannot really change for the system works, as my script operates on higher level than the OBS itself, maybe it is using a special way of creating files, which I don't know about.
I will try to take another go at the issue, but I think it might not work.

Well as mentioned you've already done more than enough work getting this script to work so I really don't want to be demanding. If the issue is resolved then great, but if not I have a work around. I'll test it out real quick and see how it works. It used to work prior to me updating OBS so for all I know the issue is on their end.

UPDATE: It works again! Just tested and the screenshot was moved correctly and given the proper name. I love this script!

oxypatic updated RecORDER with a new update entry:

1.6 - Gotta optimize them all!

Hi all!


It was a long time since I posted any updates on my script, since I feel like this is the way I like it for now.
Different things happened in my life and I had new experiences as well, which make me have better overall sight on my script, so I might try doing some work in the background about re-writing parts of code that make me cringe from the implementation.


But of course there still might be bugs to fix or features that you would like to see, so feel free to let me know about...
