problem - delete files in Video Library

[shadowze]

Hi,
Quick question would it be possible to have GB PVR's Video labrary obey the file properties on a file ? by that I mean when a file is set read only ( to protect it) , would it be possible for gb pvr not be able to delete it.
or failing that when the confirmation delete box comes up could the default button its on be set to cancel instead of ok.
Iam just looking for a way to prevent accidental deletion of files.
(Kids they can do the damnest things with remote controls :-( )

Thanks for a great prog by the way

If the files are stored on an NTFS volume, change the file permissions to read only. Much better than just relying on file attributes.

yes they are on a NTFS drive so how exactly do I make a file read only
(apart from the obvious right click -> properties -> tick read only box)

OK, the next release will not delete files with the 'read only' attribute set.

Simplest thing to do is point you to a tutorial

Google for others, also info in the help.
