Nothing so flash... I auto commflag, but don't autotranscode because its
just not accurate enough.

I let TV programs fill the drive and expire naturally, but if there's a
movie we want to keep then I export it with nuvexport, and move the
resulting xvid file to another drive when its completed.

TV shows aren't worth storing for long.
