[QUOTE="Chris31, post: 79270, member: 25102"] Thanks for the suggestion. I've never used DirMon but looking at it DirMon seems to only work by using the file extension or entire file path. The files MediaPortal creates that I need handled don’t have extensions and the folder can’t be emptied while timeshitfting is running. An example of the file MediaPortal creates is: MSDVRMM_339608504_77_15709190 The only constant in the file seems to be the MSDVRMM part of the file and they always seem to be 4KB in size. They are stored in the \card1\TempSBE directory. On windows to see the \TempSBE folder you have to uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" in folder options. I also have "Hide extensions for known file types" unchecked so everything has its file extensions showing. I know a little VB so I might try writing a little program that will monitor the folder and delete the 3rd oldest, if I can. Thanks for the suggestion of let me know if you think DirMon will work on files without an extension, maybe by using the prefix. Anyone else have any ideas? Thanks again... [/QUOTE]
