Abstract
Systems and methods for visualizing storage availability are provided. Storage usage activity on a recording device is analyzed and used to determine storage availability over time. Change in storage availability is visualized using a graphic. A user may select a portion of the graphic corresponding to storage availability of the recording device at a particular time in the future. Upon selection of the graphic, the user may be presented with media assets which are associated with the storage availability of the recording device at the particular future time. These media assets may be assets that are stored, scheduled to be recorded, and/or scheduled to be deleted at the particular future time.
