The current file naming IS truly unique. The naming convention is
CHID_YYYYMMDDHHMMxx.ext. That 'xx' is not seconds, but rather a unique
integer which is bumped until it finds a unique filename. Assuming you
don't manage to record the same channel at the same minute that
hundredth time, there should never be an overlap.
