Is there a way to delete all failed recordings?

This has been requested in the past, but I've never seen an answer.

Occasionally, something will fail and I won't notice for a week or more. A lot of failed recordings will pile up & it's very painful to delete them one at a time.

Deleting the (zero length) files doesn't do it.

Sure, you could go into the database and delete all the lines for the failed recordings.

There is a quicker way to delete them from the UI... highlight the failed recording, hit Record (ctrl-k) and then OK (Enter). You can delete them pretty quick that way if they're all in a row.

I'm pretty sure you can also go in through the web interface (http://ip_of_npvr_pc:8866), and bulk delete recordings from there. I don't use the web interface much, but I think it uses the usual check-box method so you can select the bunch of them and then hit delete.

Thank you. The web interface easily fixed my problem.
