Video Storage/ Auto Delete

harveyhousesc — Thu, 06 Apr 2017 01:32:00 GMT

I live in the city and the cameras record a lot. I got a message saying I was at capacity and now delete them each night. Is there a way to set it to delete every day or will it still record after I'm at the limit and just delete the older stuff on its own?

Wow. Didn't realise there still was a capacity! Do you have several hundred recordings each day?

Each day, the earliest day in your subscription will be deleted. If you don't pay anything, you have 7 days of storage. On day 8, day 1 will be deleted. Similarly for plans that people pay for and get extended storage time.

Yeah, the space limitation hasn't been enforced for some time - you must really be eating it up. I would expect that the oldest videos would be deleted to make space but I don't know this for sure. @JamesC, any input?

You can manually mass delete on your own using the library. I'd suggest using a browser to click on the Select link at the top right and then Select All, followed by delete.
