The present invention relates to a method for performing pre-programmed recording on a recording medium having insufficient remaining storage space for performing a pre-programmed recording with a specified recording quality, and to an apparatus for reading from and writing to recording media using such method. The method has the steps of: determining the storage space required on a recording medium for performing one or more pre-programmed recordings with a specified quality; comparing the available storage space on the recording medium with the required storage space; and in case the required storage space exceeds the available storage space, reducing the specified recording quality for one or more of the pre-programmed recordings in accordance with settable priority indicators for the pre-programmed recordings such that the required storage space no longer exceeds the available storage space.
