Set the maximum directory path length to \fIpath\fR (default is the maximum value
allowed on the system). If \fIname\fR is also given, it defines the maximum directory
name length (default is the maximum value allowed on the system). The optional
\fIenc\fR can be 0 or 1, and controls whether special characters in directory names
are encoded as hex values (default: 0).
+If \fIpath\fR or \fIname\fR are left empty (as in ",,1" to only set \fIenc\fR), the defaults apply.
The length of the video directory name and that of the actual recording directory is
subtracted from \fIpath\fR, to make sure the directory path will never become too long.
