Have Vu Plus automatically delete old recordings due to low space on HDD

Vu+ Newbie
Hi!

I'm pretty new to Vu Plus receivers, I'm happy so far got everything up and running with a Vu plus duo running blackhole image.

I have one question, as the the topic title says.

Is it possible to have some sort of script running once a day, that checks the hdd for free space and automatically deletes the oldest recording if free space on the HDD is under a set limit f.ex 10GB?

I'm kind of new to linux receivers and commands but very eager to learn, do some of you guys have any thoughts on this, would it be possible?

Regards

I would recommend to use the plugin : Advance Movie Selection!
Available at BH Addons server!

It will give U good info, however deletion should be done manually!
