TVHeadend allows you to record TV shows and it stores them in /home/hts. Problem is it doesn't cleanup after itself.

This allows you to cleanup and set a minimum amount of space you want to leave on that partition.

$ gem install cleanup_recordings

Use -s to set the space you want to reserve.\ EG: cleaning up to 20GB left.\

$ cleanup_recordings -s20

Add the following to crontab

00 00	  * * * root	/usr/local/bin/cleanup_recordings -s20

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
