Video recording needs better handling for filenames #460

Closed kephale closed 1 year ago

At the moment to record a video you start by clicking: View > Start Recording Video

Then stop with: View > Stop Recording Video

The former uses a default filename from scenery, which is fine but it would be nice to have an option for selecting files. The APIs in both sciview and scenery support custom filenames already.

The more important thing is the Stop recording video Command should know about the filepath from Start recording video. The API supports this, but we need something on the SciJava Command side to track the state of filename across both commands. This isn't a necessary feature for 1.0.0, but this might be something that you've thought about already @ctrueden
