DVR: weird folder name on some tv shows.


Recommended Posts

Hi

 

The DVR is creating weird folder name for 2 shows that I record (S.W.A.T. and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D).  They only common thing I see between both is several dots in the title.

 

For example, S.W.A.T. the folder name is : SXO61E~U

HI, we'd have to look at the server log from when this happened, thanks.

There you go

 

The recording was at 10pm yesterday evening.

ok i think that probably happened because the folder named ended with a period, and that's just what the OS did as a result. so we'll have to trim the ending dot.

Based on what you said, I did some testing.  Using synology file station, the folder name is ok.  It seems to be caused by the smb protocol.  Like you said, it's related to the name ending by a period.  When I remove the the last period, the folder name is ok over smb.
