Hello All! new to home assistant! using the operating system version. Looking to record ten minute long files forever from the stream. I tried a do while record==true automation but it didnt seem to work I can record with a triggered event but all the time seems to escape me. The other part of this is how to manage the recordings on the drive... I would like to delete any file older than one week in a file. I hope there is some reolink users out there!! thanks!

download install "DELETE Files and Folders" from HACS , for the deletion of the files you then can use automation:
...yaml
alias: cum
description: ""
triggers:
- trigger: time
at: "03:00:00"
conditions: []
actions: - action: delete.files_in_folder
data:
folder: /media/50
time: 259200
scan_subfolders: true
no_warn: true
mode: single
...
adapt time and path to your needs
