Currently I use crontab:

0 18 * * * PERCENT=$(df -h / | tail -n 1 | tr -s ' ' | cut -d ' ' -f5 | sed 's/\%//g'); if [[ $PERCENT -ge 97 ]]; then echo 'Running out of storage!'; fi

In the context of Benjamin_Loison/android_packages_apps_Recorder/issues/4 where potentially record everyday may exceed this threshold once and compress but the next day exceed again, hence should look for another solution but it may be clearer that running out of disk despite compressing if it notifies more quickly.

Maybe inotify may help.
