Ich habe in den Aufnahme Einstellungen unter "Remove items from trash..." einen Tag eingestellt, musste aber heute feststellen, dass nichts gelöscht wurde.

The trash can is emptied when preparing for recording (about a minute before starting it) and after recordings have finished and no more recordings are running. This accomplishes that the harddisk is not needlessly bothered, and that the system is usually right on time to make room for more.
Note that setting the time limit to 0 days is not the same as disabling the trash can. The items will not be purged until a recording starts or ends. Setting a time limit of 0 days allows you to delete files while recordings are in progress, without interfering with the recording.

ok, but the trash can items are 4 days old, and so it is enough time to recycle the trash can. (time limit is set to 1 day !)

It will delete files before (or after) recording. It doesn't matter if they are fifty days old, as long as the harddisk is sleeping and the space isn't needed, it won't remove anything from the trash. There's nothing "wrong" with that, although it may not be what you expect.

[manyone]

ok, that matches "it may not be what i expect", and it happens because space is not needed.
but i hope it will be configurable in the future as i hope it will have a new button for deleting all files in trashcan.

thanks a lot

That button is already there, just read the wiki page...
