Description

Enabling "Use Windows-compatible filenames" in the Configuration/Recording/Digital Video Recorder Profiles tab will allow creation of Window-compatible filenames but not Windows-compatible subdirectory names.

For example, when "NCIS: Los Angeles" is scheduled to record it will start recording and immediately complete the recording. The recording appears in the Digital Video Recorder/Removed Recordings tab with a "file not created". The name for the subdirectory to be created appears in the Digital Video Recorder/Autorecs tab as "NCIS: Los Angeles". Removing the ":" allows the subdirectory to be created and the recording successfully completes.

Suggested change is to have the "Use Windows-compatible filenames" include subdirectory names or have a separate option in the Subdirectory Settings to use Windows-compatible subdirectory names.
