Live Capture file name prefix bug?

PostThu Mar 28, 2024 4:13 pm

In the Media page "Video Capture", I use "Capture Now" to capture parts of a live stream coming from an UltraStudio 4K mini.

If I set a "File Name Prefix", every capture overwrites the file of the previous capture. I did check "Timestamp Prefix", but that makes no difference.

The only way to keep several separate captures seems to be to leave the "File Name Prefix" field empty, and let Resolve call the files "Untitled 1.mov", "Untitled 2.mov", etc.

Did I miss something, or is this a bug?

(The only reference to this problem that I found is in this post from 2018 on Creative Cow which seems to describe exactly the same problem: "Live Capture File Naming in Resolve")
