Matrox ISO recording file naming conventions

The base name specified under

Record Path

in the

Matrox ISO Record

dialog

box applies to both the video and audio files that are recorded, but the naming
conventions for video and audio files differ as follows:

Video files

Recorded .

avi

,

.mov

, and

.mp4

video files contain the base

name, Matrox input, and recording number using the following convention:

basename_input_recordingnumber.avi

,

or

.mov

,

or

.mp4

For example, if the base name for input 1 is

Record

and the

Video File Type

is set to

Matrox AVI

, the resulting file will be named

Record_1_0.avi

. You

can also have more than one recording for a Matrox input. In this case, the
files are differentiated by a recording number. This occurs when:

You clear and then re-select an input during a recording session. This
creates a different file for each selection sequence. For example, if you’re
recording input 1 to an

.avi

file with the base name

Record

, and you select

input 1 three times during a recording session, the resulting video files
will be

Record_1_0.avi

,

Record_1_1.avi

, and

Record_1_2.avi

.

$

You disconnect the source from your selected input during a recording
session, and then reconnect a source to that input. For example, if you’re
recording the video connected to input 1 to an

.avi

file, and then you

connect a source with the same or a different video format to the input, the
resulting video files will be

Record_1_0.avi

and

Record_1_1.avi

. If you
