| <section begin="intro" />This page will show you the various methods of updating library information for videos and how to remove videos.<section end="intro" />
| |
| == Updating the library ==
| |
| {{see also|Set content and scan}}
| |
| {{#lst:Set content and scan|update}}
| |
|
| |
|
| == Removing videos ==
| |
| * You can remove the contents of entire folders/sources (without deleting the actual files) from the library by setting content to <None>, even if the parent folder is still included in the library. See '''[[Set content and scan#Switching scrapers and removing sources from the library|Set content and scan]]''' for more info.
| |
|
| |
| * Individual entries can also be removed (without deleting the actual files) by bringing up the contextual menu (press {{keypress|C}} on a keyboard) and selecting "Remove from library". Those videos will be scanned in the next time the library is updated unless the parent folder's '''[[set content|content settings]]''' has '''Exclude path from library updates''' selected.
| |
|
| |
| * If you've deleted or moved the actual video files and need to remove non-working library entries, you can use '''Clean library''' in {{highlight|bordered=yes|[[Settings/Videos#Library|Settings → Videos → Library → '''Clean library...''']] }}
| |
|
| |
| * While most users seem to prefer using a desktop computer to manage the actual "physical" files, including deleting them, there is an option to let you delete files in {{kodi}} under {{highlight|bordered=yes|[[Settings/Appearance#File lists|Settings → Appearance → File lists → '''Allow file renaming and deletion''']] }}
| |
|
| |
| == Removing sources ==
| |
| {{see also|Set content and scan}}
| |
|
| |
| To remove a source you need to use the contextual menu ({{keypress|C}} on a keyboard by default) on a video source.
| |
|
| |
| * Select "Videos" in the home screen menu
| |
| * Select one of the Sources ( 'Movies' , 'TV' , etc )
| |
| * Use the contextual menu ({{keypress|C}}) to bring up the additional options for that source
| |
| * Use 'Edit' or 'Delete' to modify the source
| |
|
| |
| == Excluding directories/folders ==
| |
| {{main|Set content and scan}}
| |
| {{#lst:Set content and scan|exclude}}
