What is the best way to record movies on PC and change the names of video files?

Names of files dvr - ms MCE?

I use Win XP, SP3, MCE 2005 and I want to change the file name of some of the videos saved on my computer.  Currently I use MCE to record movies at home on my computer and then burn them to DVD.  I plugged the VCR/camcorder for video on computer TV card and MCE set to record 1 channel at say 20:00 and turn my VCR/camcorder to play at this time.  MCE records the film as if it were a recorded TV show.  A few questions:

Is there a better way to do it?  The home movies are on different formats - Betamax, VHS, camcorder Sony 8 and mini DVD.

The file is saved with descriptive as - news channel 1, channel information (Direct TV channel label), 20:00, 2 h,-where is this kind of things saved info and I can change it?  If I can change it, what format should I use?

The video file is saved in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Shared Documents\Shared Video\... and the name of the file to this location seems to match the name of the actual file displayed in MCE - but if I want to change to say "Christmas" birthday 2005, can I do without corrupting the file?  What format constraints are there for the name of the file?

Is there a better way to change the description and the name than just using windows and right-click on the file and selecting rename?

And just to repeat the first question - is there a better way to record movies on the computer?

Thank you

Scott

  • What are the names of data files scratch CS6 on Mac?

    I see people saying the file (or is it multiple files?) is stored at the root of the HD. I don't see anything here (I have only one drive) which resembles Photoshop, even when I check the invisible files. Anyone know where the file is, and what it is called? It is invisible?

    The reason I ask, is I want to exclude from my backups Time Machine current. I'm slowly learning the various Adobe files I need to exclude manually. (AutoRecover, Application Support/Adobe... actually, records bazillion CS6 within Applications, since I will restore the cloud creative if I a failure.)

    Sometimes Time Machine made a big backup for unknown reasons, and I think that the recent installation of ogf CS6 can be the culprit.

    Thanks in advance!

    He uses the device virtual standard temp / folder, which is already excluded from Timemachine.

  • What is the name of the button "mute" (for KeyCodeEvent)

    I try to use EventInjector.KeyCodeEvent to simulate a button press "mute", but I can't find the keyName for her?

    No one knows what is the name of the button mute? Or what I'm trying to do is put in standby mode, the unit is an easier way to do this?

    Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

    The desired key code is Keypad.KEY_SPEAKERPHONE.  It is marked in the API as the "speaker" button, but in fact, it mutes and restores the sound of the phone.  You can simulate with EventInjector by getting the key part of the code of the key and cast on a float:

    (char) Keypad.key(Keypad.KEY_SPEAKERPHONE)
