[mythtv-users] shows not autoexpiring and hard drive filling up

Hey everyone,

   I don't think my auto expire is working properly.  Currently, my
frontend is out of service, so my backend is just recording until I
get my motherboard replaced.  However, I just looked at mythweb and
noticed that nothing was recording tonight.  When I looked at the log,
I see:

2007-05-10 21:31:45.421 TFW, Error: safe_write(): File I/O  errcnt: 2
                        eno: No space left on device (28)
2007-05-10 21:31:45.421 TFW: safe_write(): funky usleep
2007-05-10 21:31:45.961 TFW, Error: safe_write(): File I/O  errcnt: 3
                        eno: No space left on device (28)
2007-05-10 21:31:46.471 TFW, Error: safe_write(): File I/O  errcnt: 1
                        eno: No space left on device (28)

I'm running current SVN.  In addition, I have the following settings
in the database relating to autoexpire:

AutoExpireMethod  	2  	NULL
AutoExpireWatchedPriority 	1 	NULL
AutoExpireDayPriority 	3 	NULL
AutoExpireDefault 	1 	NULL
AutoExpireLiveTVMaxAge 	1 	NULL
RerecordWatched 	1 	NULL
AutoExpireExtraSpace 	1 	NULL

I'm not quite sure what those settings mean since I don't have a
frontend to reference, but I know that I know that I had plenty of
shows that could have autoexpired.  But none of them did and the
storage group(s) I had filled up.

Thanks!
Matt
