Media recorder

A media device comprising:

• a processor;
• a memory accessible to the processor, wherein the memory includes instructions executable by the processor to perform operations including:
• displaying a user interface for a media recorder in response to first user input;
• receiving a first command to display recording space for the media recorder via the user interface;
• sending a graphical representation of the recording space to a display device in response to the command, wherein the graphical representation comprises:
• a first portion that represents the recording space available for new recordings, wherein first indicia associated with the first portion indicates a first size of the first portion as a first percentage of the recording space, wherein second indicia associated with the first portion indicates remaining recording time in a first recording format, and wherein third indicia associated with the first portion indicates remaining recording time in a second recording format;
• a second portion that represents the recording space used to store first media content that is deletable by the media recorder without additional user input when a condition is met, wherein fourth indicia associated with the second portion indicates a second size of the second portion as a second percentage of the recording space;
• and
• a third portion that represents the recording space used to store second media content, wherein an item of the second media content can only be deleted by the media recorder when the media recorder receives a user command to delete the item, and wherein fifth indicia associated with the third portion indicates a third size of the third portion as a third percentage of the recording space;
• receiving a second command to display a portion of media content stored by the media recorder;
• and
• sending a listing of the portion of media content to the display device, wherein each entry in the listing comprises a category title, a media content title of stored media content, or both, and wherein each entry in the listing is associated with a particular status indicator to signify a particular condition to be met before media content associated with the entry is deleted, wherein the listing is configured to include a comment indicator associated with a first title to signify that a comment is associated with stored media content associated with the first title, wherein the comment indicator includes a numeric representation of a number of comments associated with the first title, and wherein the numeric representation is a sum of a number of text comments associated with the first title and a number of audio comments associated with the first title.

A computer-readable storage device comprising instructions executable by a processor to perform operations including:

• displaying a user interface for a media recorder in response to first user input;
• receiving a first command to display recording space for the media recorder via the user interface;
• sending a graphical representation of the recording space to a display device in response to the command, wherein the graphical representation comprises:
• a first portion that represents the recording space available for new recordings, wherein first indicia associated with the first portion indicates a first size of the first portion as a first percentage of the recording space, wherein second indicia associated with the first portion indicates remaining recording time in a first recording format, and wherein third indicia associated with the first portion indicates remaining recording time in a second recording format;
• a second portion that represents the recording space used to store first media content that is deletable by the media recorder without additional user input when a condition is met, wherein fourth indicia associated with the second portion indicates a second size of the second portion as a second percentage of the recording space;
• and
• a third portion that represents the recording space used to store second media content, wherein an item of the second media content can only be deleted by the media recorder when the media recorder receives a user command to delete the item, and wherein fifth indicia associated with the third portion indicates a third size of the third portion as a third percentage of the recording space;
• receiving a second command to display a portion of media content stored by the media recorder;
• and
• sending a listing of the portion of media content to the display device, wherein each entry in the listing comprises a category title, a media content title of stored media content, or both, and wherein each entry in the listing is associated with a particular status indicator to signify a particular condition to be met before media content associated with the entry is deleted, wherein the listing is configured to include a comment indicator associated with a first title to signify that a comment is associated with stored media content associated with the first title, wherein the comment indicator includes a numeric representation of a number of comments associated with the first title, and wherein the numeric representation is a sum of a number of text comments associated with the first title and a number of audio comments associated with the first title.
