FreeDiskSpace for Optical Media
Posted: May 22nd, 2020, 3:31 am
G'day,
I was wondering if there had been any thought to Space metrics for Optical Media?
Total would reflect the authored space, and Free would always be zero.
But the values would could be indicative of the media type; CD around 600Mb, DVD around 4Gb (, BluRay around 25Gb?).
It may be related to the current lack of Space metrics for the Optical drive, but I have noticed that when a Bar Meter is linked to the Measure, when the drive is empty (0b) the Bar shows full (100%) whereas my expectation was an empty bar on no platter loaded and a full bar when a platter is loaded.
I realise the "FreeDiskSpace" is for monitoring storage use, but the poor optical drive is the odd one out yielding zero irrespective of media.
