a way to tell MythTV to delete the last recording as soon as I change
channels?</SPAN></FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>This is answered shortly after the above question on the same page but it
doesn't mention that LiveTV recordings that are very short (I think under 2
minutes?) will be expired immediately. All other LiveTV recordings are expired
according to your settings (default is after 1 day, I believe). You cannot
specify a shorter time than 1 day to expire these. However, they will expire
before any other program should you need room for other recordings/LiveTV. You
also have the option of changing your Group Filter on the Watch Recordings
screen to LiveTV and deleting them manually there - but there's no reason to
manage your LiveTV recordings manually. Myth will handle it so don't stress
about it. In fact, the developers have put a lot of thought into how to handle
LiveTV recordings so you don't have to.</DIV>
