Limit Recording Period

[miniteeg]

I am using continuous recording profile, how do I limit recording period to 30 days? I have gone on Play mode and figured out that I still have recordings for Aug 1st 2017 which is the date I have ever started the continuous recording, although I see the default setting in the pic attached is set to 14 days.

I need help please as my data is growing daily and eating up my storage.

you have it set to move to stored folder in 14 days...its still there...
no point in limiting storage by days...you limit should be based on capacity...

It does not move anywhere...app is set to do recordings to a specific folder I set on the NAS and it does not move to anywhere....this folder just keeps growing....it is now 520GB. I need to limit it by days so I'm able to keep hold of incidents that might take time to be discovered.

again, day limit is silly, you want to limit it by how much actual storage space you have available...

Stored is set as the folder the live recordings go to. Setting to storage does not make sense in my case. I have sent to support team but they are always too slow on response.

You say you have your recordings going to the STORED folder and the configuration in the attachment to your first message is moving the recordings from the STORED folder to the STORED folder after 14 days.

Why would you not just limit the clip age to 30 days if that is the time period you want to keep them for and then have them DELETE rather than MOVE to STORED?
