Automated recordings are only rules for the system to automatically keep adding recordings to the particular series along they get populated to the channel's program schedule. This means that the user's recording quota is not taken into account when adding the automated recording request. The automated recording request will keep on running as a background process if the user's recording quota allows it. If the quota gets full, the process will not add new recordings anymore. Respectively when some quota is freed, the process will continue adding the automated recordings based on the user's stored automated recording rules.
