Abstract
A method and system to extending naming of captured multimedia data to secondary applications is provided. The secondary applications are registered and associated with identifiers. The identifiers are stored in naming templates utilized by a file-naming engine. A multimedia-acquisition engine captures the multimedia data and communicates with the file-naming engine to generate a path that specifies a location to store the captured multimedia data. The file-naming engine processes the naming template to determine whether the secondary applications or default values are utilized to generate the path for the captured multimedia data.
