Limiting the number of recording questions

[SWKerr]

I would like to be able to keep a limited number of the most recent versions of a show. It appears that when I put a limit on them they will stop recording episodes until I delete one. (I am using SageMC if that would make any difference.)

Example: I don’t watch David Letterman every day and don’t really want to accumulate 20 of them. I just want the two most recent episodes available at all times. There are a lot of kids and news shows that I would like to work this way as well.

Is there a way to set Sage to work this way?

Theoretically, if you set "Keep at most" to n, and leave auto delete enabled, Sage should keep the n most recent episodes.

I have not noticed Auto Delete. Is it in the Advanced recoring options or is that another setting in Sage?

[stanger89]

Should be in the favorite options, should be on by default.

Can't figure out how to get this to work in SageMC. I've set the following:

Keep: Until space is needed
Keep up to: 2 recordings

Do I need to do anything else?
