I don't have multiple directories in my recordings storage group so I can't
confirm that it will work for you. It works as always for my setup with
only one directory in the storage group, so please let me know if this
fixes your problem.

Thanks to both of you (Ian and Raymond) for encouraging me to enhance the
functionality of my script!
