If you go to delete the recording in Mythfrontend, it'll tell you the show size to the nearest MB

  I lied, one last, is there an easier way to see file sizes/show, I looked at the data files in conqueror but it's a little hard to tell what show 2003030303040403 was, unless the numbers mean something im not seeing

  Thanks

    onelast one, what does the scale bitrate for frame size do? Wouldn't that override my bitrate slider (if checked)


  say you chose 3000 as your bit rate. If you have the scale box checked and your resolution is 640 x 480 then your bit rate is still 3000. But if you change to 320 x 480 your effective bit rate would be 1500 even if you don't touch the bit rate field because it has been "scaled" to your resolution. If you hadn't checked the "scale" box, when you switch to 320 x 480 you will still be using 3000 as your bit rate which might be more than you want or expect.
