Out of curiosity, why do you need to know the file name?
If you're using MythTV recording files outside of MythTV (i.e. for
playback on another player/device), you should be using something like
mythlink.pl to create human-readable links to the machine-readable file
names. Or, if you really need to know on a case-by-case basis, you can
use the INFO key (or DETAILS) to see the details.
And, in general, if you only use the recording with MythTV, the filename
is irrelevant--since all file management should be done by/within MythTV
itself.
