Hi,
I just experienced weird problem. My hard drive became 100% full.
But I noticed that there are tons of .del directories, some dating from months ago.. VDR hasn't removed them! What could cause this?
I see entries in log: low disk space while recording, trying to remove a deleted recording... Jan 16 08:23:06 puucee vdr: [30504] removing recording xxx.del
And these recordings ARE removed really. But the normal background cleaning does not happen.
This is somehow related to the fact that I now have Plex Media Server sitting on the VDR recordings directory. But still I could remove the .del directories easily from the command line. After manually deleting them, disk is now only 85% full.. And that's 4TB drive. :) So there were quite a bit of .del directories.
