Thanks Phil, I figured as much.

These will be already-captured video files, in which some people put the date... grrrrr!

If there is a slash in the file name on OS X, Revolution replaces it with a colon ":"
Unfortunately, this means the file cannot be found.
Of course, replacing colons with slashes doesn't help, since Rev interprets this as an extra folder.
Has anyone solved this problem?

Hi Josh,

My solution: disallow slashes in filenames.

Rev lets you detect slashes in filenames (by listing the files in a folder for example) but doesn't let you [successfully] reference files whose names contain them.

Slashes aren't allowed in filenames on Windows IIRC, so if you're making a multi-platform thing you'll need to deal with it there anyway.

I don't know a workaround.
