[Bug]: camera export name not matching

Checklist

• I have updated to the latest available Frigate version.
• I have cleared the cache of my browser.
• I have tried a different browser to see if it is related to my browser.
• I have tried reproducing the issue in incognito mode to rule out problems with any third party extensions or plugins I have installed.

Describe the problem you are having

Given this documentation:
`POST /api/export//start//end/
Export recordings from start-timestamp to end-timestamp for camera as a single mp4 file. These recordings will be exported to the /media/frigate/exports folder.

It is also possible to export this recording as a time-lapse using the "playback" key in the json body, or specify a custom export filename, using the "name" key.

Optional Body:

{
"playback": "realtime", // playback factor: realtime or timelapse_25x
"name": "custom export name" // override the default export filename with a custom name
}`

Steps to reproduce

If I send a request like this:
curl -X POST \ http://127.0.0.1:5000/api/export/camera_1/start/1732818565/end/2000000000 \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"playback": "realtime", "name": "camera_1_2024_11_28_19_30__gZj2F8Kywk.mp4"}' {"message":"Starting export of recording.","success":true}

I would expect the file to be named camera_1_2024_11_28_19_30__gZj2F8Kywk.mp4. But instead, it is named with the id.
In fact look at this output:
curl localhost:5000/api/exports [{"camera":"camera_1","date":1732818867,"id":"camera_1_t083j6","in_progress":false,"name":"camera_1_2024_11_28_19_30__gZj2F8Kywk.mp4","thumb_path":"/media/frigate/clips/export/camera_1_t083j6.webp","video_path":"/media/frigate/exports/camera_1_t083j6.mp4"}]

This is not a bug, the name refers to the name field not the file name

[GiorgioUghini]

Ehm, that is exactly why I posted the API description from the official Frigate page.
As written in the post above, the API specification clearly states: "name": "custom export name" // override the default export **filename** with a custom name.
To me, this bug report should not be closed so quickly.

That's how it used to work but it was changed in 0.14

In any case, the documentation has already been updated to reflect this https://deploy-preview-13787--frigate-docs.netlify.app/integrations/api/export-recording-export-camera-name-start-start-time-end-end-time-post
