    Hi,
    Just got a Horizon box recently. On my old box you could see(in Recordings) how much - as a percentage - disc space was used. Can't seem to find it on Horizon Box, can anyone help?
    Thanks.

    Go to Menu, then Settings, then Diagnostics.

    Also, by default, the box is set to automatic disk space management which makes the amount of used disk space used to be irrelevant.

    This works quite well once you know its doing it as it treats a partial view of a show as 'watched' and will automatically delete it so if you want to finish watching something later you just have to lock it to stop it being automatically cleaned.

    That's a bit of double edge sword if you didn't know about it.

    I certainly didn't.
