Directory event format

Hi. I'm new to this forum, just to clear out my ignorance about some of the Q&A that may have already occured.

My question: Is there a way to change the directory saving format from the current default of event number as a directory.

Let me explain, I would like a format such as:

/year/month/day/"cam number/"event number" /"then jpegs" instead of the current
/"cam number"/"event number"/"jpegs" format.

I'm not sure if this has already been asked and solved, I searched the forums and couldn't find it.

Any alternative answers welcome.
Thanks

Currently this is not configurable. However if a consistent scheme were to be determined it would eb a change that could happen.

Ok. Tks. I had a feeling that this was not possible as a configuration option, this looks more like a source code change, where it would break the ZM file saving structure.

I will have to write a wrapper around this to achieve the goal intended.

Thanks Phil.
