Append video filename to screen capture filename

Postby replytomk3 » 04 Sep 2012 01:09

Hello

VLC accepts stftime() functions such as %y-%m-%d for the screenshot filename.

However, I would like to append the name of the video played to the created screenshot, as in:

vlcsnap-%y-%m-%d-%h-%m-OriginalFilename
