I can set a indepedant quota on my browser cache that is has nothing to 
do with total or free disk space... can I do that with the live TV storage?

What happens if the channel has no programming breaks - say a closed 
ciruit baby monitor? The wife puts it on then forgets about it... Will 
the Live TV buffer fill the entire disk then crash? Can it autoexpire 
the currently watched live tv program?
