Stop Overriding Files

[Sound Master]

How do you automatically rename or change the naming of the files in Avidemux and VirtualDub2 to prevent overwriting previous ones?

I mean, how do I automatically add timestamps to the names of my output files?

This can be tricky in "dos" - i use something like this:

@set SAVESTAMP=%DATE:/=-%_%TIME::=-%
@set SAVESTAMP=%SAVESTAMP:.=-%

*example of usage in file name*

"%~n1_%SAVESTAMP%_.mov"

And btw - this is for scripting so if you can use mentioned applications from command line then it should be not a problem.

Can you answer these questions for me?
