Hi, On my system, disk usage is always about 99%, because VDR cares about deleting old recordings, when needed.

In the file cutter.c locate the line AssertFreeDiskSpace(-1); in the function cCuttingThread::ProcessSequence(). Chnage the '-1' to whatever value between 1 and 100 you like. Note, though, that this will remove old recordings with priorities up to the given value minus one.
