Sorting out recording space on a DS-7716NI-I4 / 16P NVR?

Is there a way of seeing what each camera is using in terms of space ?
Just trying to get a balance between the cameras that have different resolutions without firing shots in the dark.
Many thanks

If you log into the NVR via a browser, click on the playback tab. In the lower right corner click the download icon. Using the calendar, select a day and set the start time to 00:00 and the end time to 23:59 (which will be be set as default if you select anything other than the current day on the calendar), then click search. This will show you all of the recording files for one day for that camera (see pic) So in my case Camera 1 has 71 chunks at 1015 MB (72065 MB / 1024 = 70.37GB)

I'm sure that with the version 3 GUI you can do that directly from the local monitor output. However when I've checked on my I series with the latest V4 firmware - although I can bring the same file list up, the file size is missing. Yet another firmware bug no doubt.
