One other scenario...if running out of HDD space I would assume that the "deleted recordings" would get overwritten before the 48 hours is up if the space is needed to record more titles.Still no manual timers :/ . Recycle bin feature is already useful! When you delete things they are stored under "Deleted Recordings" for the next 48 hours. You can also restore them if you want. Deleting recordings instantaneously gives you more space, even though they are not 100% deleted. In other words, once stored in the "recycle bin" the recordings no longer occupy the users' recording space, unless restored.
