[BUG] sv_demoClearOld doesn't work about mvdsv

[ciscon]

so it turns out there was an overflow when calculating the space used (thanks @spoike) but being that you're on the antilag stuff, you'd need to manually merge the fix in (assuming it's that issue you're hitting and not the file limit).

[ciscon]

fyi, if you want to archive the stuff it's better to do it yourself anyway, i have a cronjob like this:

20 6 * * 4 root nice -n20 rsync -a /mnt/nas-quake/demos/*.mvd /mnt/nas-quake/demos_backup/nicotinelounge/. >/dev/null 2>&1 && nice -n20 find /mnt/nas-quake/demos -mtime +30 -print0|xargs -r -0 rm -f >/dev/null 2>&1

i can't replicate this issue on master, i created a 1 gig mvd and threw it in alongside a handful of other demos, set my sv_demomaxdirsize to 1 gig, and when i start a match:
sv_demoClearOld
[2024-05-10 12:51:02] "sv_demoClearOld" is "10"
sv_demomaxdirsize
[2024-05-10 12:51:05] "sv_demoMaxDirSize" is "1024000"
[2024-05-10 12:51:08] ciscon is ready
[2024-05-10 12:51:08] All players ready
[2024-05-10 12:51:08] Timer started
[2024-05-10 12:51:08] QiZmo: timer lag point disabled
[2024-05-10 12:51:08] Clearing 10 old demos

maybe permissions..?

[ciscon]

you'd think it wouldn't be writing the things in the first place if it were permissions, but you never know when it comes to more advanced stuff like extended attributes/selinux (though i doubt that's an issue on a default ubuntu install).

[ciscon]

are there more than 4096 demos in there? it will stop counting at that number so if the size limit isn't hit with a bunch of tiny demos you're sol and have to clear out stuff manually.

You've got it!
ubuntu@ip-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx:~/nquakesv/ktx/demos$ ls | wc -l
8113

PS: I just manually deleted some.
I wrote a script to delete demos older than 60 days

We have a lot of "end" matches, so tiny demos
