A method is provided in one example embodiment and includes receiving a signal to record a media stream, and recording the media stream in a first file that has a preconfigured length. If the media stream being recorded exceeds the preconfigured length then a second file is used to continue recording the media stream. The second file can have the same preconfigured length as the first file. The method also includes receiving a signal to stop recording the media stream, and storing metadata associated with the media stream in a database. In specific implementations, the metadata can include a unique file name associated with the media stream, a directory name of a disk directory, a first time indicative of when the recording started, and a second time indicative of when the recording ended.
