[mythtv-users] Recording Storage Limit

[Adam Windisch]

Sorry I was unable to provide logs.  I could never get the messages on 
the screen when it happened.  Thanks for getting the bug fix in the 
queue.

Is there a ticket # that I can track the progress?  The wife is getting frustrated with all of her shows being erased before she can watch them.


Thanks,
  Adam
