Video capture gets overwritten

dreamkatcha · 13 September 2018, 23:02

I've noticed that if you finish recording and accidentally boot up WinUAE again, the original output file gets overwritten.

It didn't used to be like that. The emulator would create a file called output-1.avi or -1 appended to whatever you've changed the filename to, to preserve the original.

Has anyone else experienced this? I don't remember changing anything to break it.

File name is automatically changed only if recording is started using some other method than GUI button. (Input panel configured key shortcut etc..)
