Try prepending the path with ‘file://' <file:///'>.
For example, '/var/amb-ux/IFLM_IFL1_%D_01-01.MP2’
would become ‘file://
<file:///var/amb-ux/IFLM_IFL1_%25D_01-01.MP2'>/var/amb-ux/IFLM_IFL1_%D_01-01.MP2'
<file:///var/amb-ux/IFLM_IFL1_%25D_01-01.MP2'>.
Also, while it won’t trigger that ‘URL is invalid’ error, I suspect that your
use of the ‘%D’ wildcard will not achieve what you’re looking for. The %d and
%D wildcards are a bit 'special’ in that they take an argument that indicates
the format of the date-time string to be inserted. See
http://opsguide.rivendellaudio.org/html/appendix.metadata_wildcards.html#sect.metadata_wildcards
<http://opsguide.rivendellaudio.org/html/appendix.metadata_wildcards.html#sect.metadata_wildcards>
for the gritty details.
Cheers!
