FFMPEG Output Options

I have it setup to record events and convert them to .avi with no issues. I recently added another camera and can not for the life of me find the switch needed to have the name include the monitor name. This is what i currently have as my output options.


-c:v libx264 -preset ultrafast -b 2500k -s 1280x720 /*****/*****/*****/*****/`date +"%Y_%m_%d-%H_%M"`.avi (which outputs = 2018_05_03-12_10.avi)

I would like it to say

2018_05_03-12_10_cam1.avi
2018_05_03-12_10_cam2.avi

Ideas and Thoughts?

Isn't it %N? That's the name switch in my timestamps tab in monitor configurations.

I did this

-c:v libx264 -preset ultrafast -b 2500k -s 1280x720 /xxx/xxx/xxx/xxx/`date +"%Y_%m_%d-%H_%M_%N"`.avi

and this is what the output is
2018_05_05-11_10_177114471.avi
