Silly me...of course!!!!

Going to try to create the batch file now...

what is that eMule software you have in your startup folder ?

 

[rekenaar]

Customize the following 2 lines according to your setup and it should work.
It works nice on my XP.

set logsDir=C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\log
set mpDir=C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal

dont work. MP is opened, but the name doesnt change

 

[rekenaar]

replace the EXIT with PAUSE

Run it again.
Close MediaPortal
Copy and paste the content of the command window here.

I'll be back in a few hours.

With only the time it runs:

rename MediaPortal.log MediaPortal_%time:~-11,2%%time:~-8,2%.log

seems that there is a problem with the separator / of the date Is it possible to use another character?
If not, renaming with time could be enough. Thanks

might be a localization difference.

Try the following in a batch file and post the result:

echo %date%
pause

got to run now...be back later

I learned some basics and was able to create this batch:

@echo off
rem Add time to logfile name and move it to a folder with date in its name
for /f "tokens=1-3 delims=/- " %%a in ('date /t') do set XDate=%%a-%%b-%%c

for /f "tokens=1-2 delims=: " %%a in ('time /t') do set XTime=%%a.%%b
echo %XDate% %Xtime%
md "%xdate%"
copy mediaportal.log "%xdate%"\mediaportal_"%xtime%".log

It rocks, it renames the log to mediaportal_time and moves the log to a folder called with the date

Thanks !
