Question / Help capture name parameters

The 0.6.3 beta release of OBS has a lot of naming parameters to get stuff like date and such included. But in the 0.9.1 build I just can't find these parameters any more. Is there a list of available parameters that I can use when naming a file to capture to?

Are you sure you are not confusing OBS and OBS-MP? I think currently if you use x264 you can leave the filename empty and it will use the current time and date but if you use ffmpeg output you have to set a filename.

Uhm yes I think I am confusing them. I am using 0.9.1 and that's OBS-MP, right? :s

Found it - standard output, drop a directory to save it in and it's saving with the current timedate stamp. Thanks!

Still needs to be implemented (it will be, just has been lower priority still)
With the directory x264 option doing the trick I'm already more than happy that I can have my recordings datestamped. No hurries to implement it for me anymore ;-)

Oh, I thought you meant the ability to customize the output filename, which will be implemented at some point.

Yep, that was what I meant, but mostly I missed the $T parameter. Now using x264 which gives datestamp I'm already happy ;-)
