Well, I moved my HiPix to a Hewlett Packard Pavillion to test and see if the same problem still occurs that after I name a file for a recording and put it in the scheduled recordings, suddenly next time I try to schedule something, the disk space shows some really small amount of space left like 200K or so no matter how much is really left.
I tried using the local hard disk on the computer, so the hardware is completely different than the other system. Same exact problem. I don't understand why everyone else doesn't have this problem? Maybe I'm somehow doing something different. Here is what I am doing to try and name my recording:
1. I click the record button
2. I fill in the time the program comes on, and the duration of the program. (I put the hours in the hours field, and minutes in the minutes field.)
3. I click on "Create File"
4. It asks for a filename, so I type on a name for the program that makes sense. For example, "Sopranos"
5. HiPix pops of a window that says, "Open recorded files" and then below, says "Sopranos does not exist. Would you like to create it?" I say yes.
6. I click "Apply"
7. The recording event screens pops up. If I put the cursor on the item I just added, it will show that it is named whatever name I had typed.
8. After this, if I go in to the record section again, no matter what computer or setup I use, it will say I have about 200K left of disk space and I don't have enough space to record anything.
Am I doing anything different than everyone else?
Thanks.

Selecting the filename before putting in the time of the program and duration fixes the problem!
