I find myself often searching for the right file since the naming format isn’t really intuitive.  
Cant this be changed to something like yyy-mm-dd\_hh:mm:ss, so the files get sorted in the right order?  
Don’t want to sound rude, english is not my first language…

you can change the name to anything you like, it just pops up a suggestion based on date so you can just click and start recording. I agree with your format suggestion though.
