Sync Transcode Folder size limit

Use Case: Would like to sync an entire season or even an entire show - all at once for convenience.

 

Issue: Uses too much, or even run out of disk space when syncing a lot of content.

 

Possible Solution: Allow a size limit setting for the Sync Transcode Folder.

 

 

My understanding is that the temp files are removed as they are copied to the target device. A limit of the folder size would allow you sync a bunch of content, but only consume disk space as you watch the shows.

 

Thanks.

This is an important problem for me... Adding a way to limit space used for sync would be great.

In my opinion, a way to limit the number of synchronised videos (by user) would be perfect :)
