You people are missing the point. Since my system is a mature system the
hard drive is always full of recordings so anytime someone watches live tv I
lose a recording I wanted to keep. Its not a matter of how much free space
is on the drive. My son often puts on the music channel for 10-12 hours/day
this routinely deletes 5-8 recordings each time. The file is 20+gigs. I want
the system to never save live tv which should be an option.
