    Update: This has been implemented on 1.1 alpha :)

    When you put in a new tuner or have a new database, you always have to go through recording and timeshifting directories for each tuner and change directories for them (unless you want to have them @ Program Data)

    I have always used relatively small C -volume so I can defrag it easily but sometimes I forget that tv-server setting on some tuner and C is flooded and full.

    Could there be a config option, a tickbox or something called "Use these directories for all devices" that could override tuner specified folders? After ticking that, tuner selectbox would go gray and you'd see only one directory for recordings and one for timeshifting.

    I realise the reason why there's tuner specific folders (separate for SAT for example) but I think still most of users have same folders for each tuner.

    I like that suggestion. I have a number of cards and it takes a while to set them all up individually. Nothing too deathly, but it would be nice to set one and then "apply to all" or something.

    Also, sometimes I may forget one and eventually MP and Windows may fail because the c drive is full...

    I like this too. I always use the same recording and Timeshift folder for all cards (I can't think of a reason why I wouldn't), so having this as an option would be a good idea.
