Description Ligverd 2017-04-19 12:56:52 UTC 
Created attachment 350066 [details] [review]
add property prefix multifilesink

add property "prefix"

multifilesink prefix="record/%Y/%m/%d/%H%M" location=-%010d.ts""
prefix is the syntax for strftime
and automatically creates the required directory
/2017/04/01/1056-0000000001.ts
Comment 1 Philippe De Muyter 2017-04-26 12:56:43 UTC 
this should depend on https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779213 to use the reference timestamp instead of some current time.

this should also avoid localtime which is not thread-safe
Comment 2 Ligverd 2017-05-17 07:05:51 UTC 
for clean code, I will not speak.
I use prefix in hlssink, and decided to share this with others if the developers will consider this option necessary, I think they will not be difficult to include this code with their bug fixes.
