This worked for me actually. Thank you.

Here's the info that hopefully helps us troubleshoot this. I am on Win7 64 bit but running VLC 3.1.2 32 bit at the moment. The output directory I've set is C:\Record. Given the message output, I suspect the error is because the filename it tries to write to is longer than windows supports—specifical...

I'm having the exact same issue. I have the record directory set, but when I hit record on the stream I'm watching? Nothing is written in it.
