Is this in 0.19?  I don't see it on 0.18, though I recall there is a
command-line option to list that info.

I recognize that it won't be highly accurate since a lot of approximations
will be involved (things like the transcoding schedule make this a
nontrivial problem), but I don't think it needs to be highly accurate to be
useful.  I do doubt that most people are passing gigabytes of other data in
and out of their Myth recording partitions though (even if they were it
would likely need to run periodically anyway, so gross errors should be
short-lived).

If I knew SQL I'd take a crack at it (might be a good incentive to learn ;)
