MovieFileOut TOP problem

Bugs
1

I’ve tried recording a vj set with the movie file out TOP. I’ve saved the patch a bunch of times without stopping the recording. The problem is, the patches were saved with the record set to ‘on’, so the recorded files were overwritten on the next load.

It’s not an actual bug, but it’s gonna happen to a lot of TD users at some point, so maybe a dialogue box with a warning regarding overwriting files would help.

You can make a safetynet if you forget to turn of recording the next time:
put an Execute DAT next to your moviefileout TOP, and set it to run on start.

put this code in it:

def start(): op('moviefileout1').par.record = 0 return

from now on, everytime you start the patch, recording will be set to off.
