    This value can be overridden for individual channels in their properties.

Storage Common Settings:

Storage settings

  • The Settings button, located next to the Create button, opens the Storage Common Settings dialog.
  • In this dialog, you can configure the Disk Space Threshold (MB) to define when a low disk space warning is triggered.
  • When available disk space falls below the specified threshold:
    • All channels with recording enabled automatically switch to circular mode.

    • Older data is deleted as new data is recorded, constrained by the remaining available space.

    • The archive size for each channel may vary:

      • For channels running continuously, the archive may retain the full intended duration (e.g., 24 hours) if space permits.
      • For newly started channels, only the most recent data up to the threshold may be retained (e.g., 10 hours).
    • If free disk space increases, the archive size for each channel can expand accordingly.

Storage Clearing Conditions

Storage will be automatically cleared under the following circumstances:

  • Modifying the storage assignment for a channel
  • Detaching storage from a channel
  • Removing storage from a channel configuration
  • Deleting storage in system settings or modifying its path
  • Deleting a channel

Storage Preservation Conditions

Storage contents remain intact during the following operations:

  • Restarting a channel or receiver
  • Adjusting HLS segment duration (new segment length is applied gradually)
  • Removing a receiver associated with the channel
