Description

Hi,

while the feature https://tvheadend.org/issues/3141 (fixed now) supposedly deals with automatic deletion of recordings (from both log and storage) once retention period expires, it would be good if Tvheadend deals also with the problem of low available storage.

One option is to force deletion of recordings, whose retention period expires earliest, in favour of currently recorded stream.

Second topic: I generally tend to keep recordings so long as there is enough storage. With respect to the above, it would be nice if a particular recording can be marked as "never delete". This would also require update of web GUI for finished recordings: even now there is no way to show the actual retention period for each recording, only a reference to a recording profile (which may change in time if the user reconfigures it).
