I know this thread has been sitting for a few months, but I’m hunting for a way to rename captured m2t hdv files so the filename includes recording date/time and this is one of the most recent places anyone has discussed it. The closest I’ve come to finding something (other than spending $80 on DVMP Pro… just for that) is a utility that creates a subtitle file with date/time, geo position, etc. by reading that info from an AVCHD (.m2t) file.

In case it helps anyone else, the web site for that utility is here:
https://avchd2srt.webs.com/

Next stop is to see if Sony has any way to suggest features for their capture tool in Vegas like “Capture File-Name Templates.” Maybe they’ll consider adding the ability to substitute a few basic variables (e.g. recorded date-time, tape position, etc.) into a captured file’s name.
