Delete from Video Library

[mobiusnz]

Due to Uninstalling / Reinstalling I lose my recodings from the Database - To solve this I have Video Library pointing to my recordings folder so I can play them back thisway but I then have to quit gbpvr to use explorer to delete them when I've watched them. This alone is no biggy as once I have things all settled in I shouldn't be playing and lose my recordings but I still want to be able to delete as sometimes I introduce other video files to watch but I'm not obsesive compulsive and want to keep them all like some people do - I like to watch a Movie and then delete it so it would be nice to be able to delete from the Video Libary interface - Perhaps hitting the delete key on the keyboard gives an ARE YOU SURE or similar - its nice it auto plays when you select a video so no need to interfere with that by adding a dialogue there to Play or Delete or Exit similar to recordings but someway to delete would be nice.

would be nice. in the mean time you can use one of the video plugins which will allow you to do this.

Yeah - I do like yours for the Movies - but I keep forgetting to direct play when its a recording and then have to wait for it to attempt to retreive episode info.

I LOVE yours for my divx collection tho - great for babysitters to be able to pick a movie to watch easily.

you can configure "my vids" so when you press "enter"/"ok" it directly starts playing the movie and skips the info screen (its in the config)

Ok - thats cool - just tried it and I like it - My only problem is back to original - how do I delete from My Videos???

[reven]

its under the popup menu, default edit/delete. but you can edit the skin.xml file and rearrange that menu anyway you like

to get the popup menu, push the "go" button or "f11".

Well - that was officially as sad as what my clients ask me. I'd found the edit menu - just didn't realise it scrolled!!!!!

Thanks Reven.

Problem is it won't delete folders so you still get the folder names cluttering up your list of "recordings".

[reven]

it does delete folders, i do it all the time. its probably only not deleting a folder if a file in that file is being accessed and cant be deleted (eg if comskip is running on a file).
