Comment:

 On my system, storage space is properly reported.  The units used are
 always MB.

 I think you're saying that you would prefer if the MythTV backend status
 page (returned by the MythTV backend, not part of MythWeb, so I changed
 the component) used a more human-friendly format for storage space
 reporting (like df's --human-readable argument) such that rather than
 showing:

 Space Free: 750,749 MB

 it would show:

 Space Free: 733 GB

 which implies that rather than showing:

 Total Space: 25,262,247 MB

 it would show:

 Total Space: 24 TB

 and so on (since GB are not appropriate for everyone's configuration any
 more than MB are).  Is this what you're saying, or are you saying that the
 values presented to you are off by a factor of 1024?

 And, FWIW, I won't take a side regarding the MythTV backend status page's
 use of MiB while showing the unit MB.
