HDD Recording space left? (2 Viewers)

[TOTMS]

Not sure if this has been suggested before, but could we add some kind of really basic horizontal bar, possibly on the schedualed recording screen, which would just give at a glance, what % harddrive is already used and maybe show how much the selected recording would use.

e.g.

|==========|---|________________|

First bit shows used space, the second would show space required to record selected program, and obviously a free space section...



etc...

Hello all,

I'm searching for some IMO basic feature like this one - I would be happy even with a simple set of numbers giving me the space in GB on the different disks or at least one number for the recordings disk. Searching the forum I did not find many threads about this issue.

Is it possible that this feature isn't needed? I see parameters for recordings defining how long they should be kept. Is it meant that MP/TVS automatically purges some recordings when space is getting low? In my experience this did not work this way - I instead remember having lost some recordings in times my disk space was low.

Any hint would be appreciated.

regards from Stuttgart and a merry christmas to all!
