SUMMARY

Both capture module and scheduler should estimate the likely size on disk and issue a warning if a session is likely to exceed the available disk space when starting the session.

A few users reported having lost pictures due to not watching the session, as warning messages were not issued when starting the session. Some warnings seem to be issued during the session, though.

Note: This is likely not trivial, due to mount points and how files are stored.

That's a good suggestion, will see how we can incorporate that.
