</div></div>So how does that work? Are you accessing it off the card? Or does the<br>
card upload it automatically, so that's it locally stored on the<br>
mythbox during playback?</blockquote><div><br></div><div>The files get copied to the NAS (and uploaded to Picasa) whenever the camera/card is within wifi range.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
If uploaded, then there is another way you<br>
could have solved it. You could install a service called incron to<br>
launch a script to rename the file after it is finished being<br>
uploaded. I do stuff like that with incron. When my android phone<br>
finishes uploading a video to a certain directory, the frontend<br>
launches playback in myth automatically.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I really want to keep the file names the same, so I don't end up with differently named duplicates at some point.</div><div><br></div></div>
