Environment: Windows 7, RMC 6.0.1.37 Firefox 48.0
Problem: When recording http://original.livestream.com/brevardsheriffcourt using an RMC schedule there are splash screens that change rapidly before the broadcast starts and after it ends. In other words, there is not a precise beginning and ending time that I can specify in the RMC schedule. While RMC is deleting some of the small files associated with these splash screens other files cannot be deleted by RMC 6. The unsuccessful deletions only show up in the output folder and not necessarily on the Home screen of RMC 6
So, daily, I have to go in and manually delete these small files out of the output folder.
Debugging attempt: I run RMC against http://original.livestream.com/brevardsheriffcourt at a time I know court is NOT being broadcasted so that only the splash screens will be shown. I ran with RMC Debug mode enabled from the Get Support tab. At this point I am going to only focus on one file that should have been deleted but was not. That file is Embed Widget 3.flv. Notice in the logs created by Debug mode that the file cannot be deleted because the file was in use. I suspect occasionally the deletion attempt by RMC 6 is in conflict with the termination of the RMC recording event against that same file.
Here are the relevant log entries:

Any suggestions short of writing a nightly script to remove all files smaller than around 500 KB in the output folder?
