Video Folders

[gujuguy67]

I have 2 harddrives and I have set up 2 folders.

Now my question is once my default folder gets full, will new recordings automatically record onto the other drive/folder?

In the perfect world yes . Unfortunately, this is not the perfect world, and is not how BTV is programmed to work. You can actually "virtually" combine the drives using Windows so that they have one drive letter. I did that with 2 of my drives. I use another only for shows I archive, and another just for movies.

Brett, this is an option I have been lobbying for, for quite some time. The problem with spanned drives in Windows is that if one physical volume fails, you lose the whole virtual volume.
