Another way I found to free up the space without needing to reboot is
to do an "ls -la" on the backend machine in the directory were you store
your recordings. The files you deleted from the front end will be "hidden"
files. Just delete the hidden files and your disk space reappears. When you
do the "ls -la" it's obvious which hidden files need to be removed.

Do you mean that if I remount the nfs shares the space is freed?

I always access myth content via my front ends (or on occation
mythweb) and when I view a file on the frontend or delete after having
viewed it therre, I'd assume the share is mounted..... So far I
haven't seen the space reappear until the reboot.
