[mythtv-users] User job to encode recordings and storage/deletion of?

Hi,I'v figured out how to encode video for playback on my blackberry now. So
I can take an ambiguously named recording from /var/lib/mythtv and
encode it to a smaller file, copy it to my Blackberry media card and watch
it fine.

Now I assume I can just set a user job to re-encode each program and dump
them to a folder somewhere where  I can get to them
from my blackberry. What stops this disk then filling up? I assume it's then
up to me to delete files from it, or have some kind
of cron job delete files older then X days?

Many thanks
Mike
