I've programmed a bunch of kodi setups to different fire tv boxes and through general use most of them eventually fill up the device to where it becomes unusable and it constantly shows the storage warning. I have an addon linked to the main library so that I can add content from the addon to my main library and it seems that it is filling up the thumbnail folders. I have one unit that has like 5 gigs of thumbnails. Is there a way to clear this stuff?

delete the thumbnails folder and the textures13 database file.

Thumbnails should regenerate on their own. The script that kyungrak mentions has an option to force that regeneration if it's not happening for some reason or you want to pre-cache the thumbnails all at once, instead of as you go and view videos.

i followed a tutorial were it allowed me to move the thumbnail files to an external usb, it helped a bit but i still have 4gb used of total of 5gb, i believe is an addon that i have that is downloading .strm files to my ftv, im just wondering if i could move those files to an external as well.
