Except the script would tend to get complicated in disk full situations where Myth already has much of the functionality built in for that, it only needs to understand that RecordFilePrefix can be something other than a single value from the settings table. Plus, this opens the door for a wide range of features related to disk management that can enhance the product.

How would it know whether a particular location has sufficient disk
space for a scheduled recording?
How does it know now? If Myth already has a mechanism to deal with full disk situations, it will work regardless of where the recording is destined, as long as it is checking the appropriate location for free space. Again, this is one of there areas that could be enhanced by multiple locations in that if the default location for particular recording is full, Myth could be instructed to make various decisions on whether to expire content from the drive or simply record in a different location.
