Keep recordings from being backed up

[sweichbr]

I have a daily automatic backup in HA and I don't know how to keep the Kuna downloads (from the /cofig/downloads directory).

Also, even if I delete older files, they will be re-downloaded by the Kuna automation. This is causing my backups to be huge.

Is there some way to exclude these videos from being backed-up?

Personally I:

• Use https://habackup.io/
• Exclude the media folder: exclude_folders: media
• Put the downloaded files in /media:

downloader:
  download_dir: /media/network/downloads

Works well for me
