Yes, hide updates - that's currently the only way.

I assume REMOVE is removing outdated URL links to previously streamed Video catch-up and related thumbnails, but have noted that this can have an unexpectedresult i.e. removing watch status "ticks" of previously streamed episode items, when going to look for latest episodes of a popular series. (In my case when using plugin.video.itv addon)
@popcornmix, this is behaviour introduced by a newclock5 patch: https://github.com/popcornmix/xbmc/commi...d7a33b4cb5
(At the very least label 15010 probably now needs to be 15012)
It seems to be removing "optical, non-existing files, files with no matching source" but the "... items from addons?" prompt is a little confusing.
Are there any plans for this to go upstream (I couldn't find any related PR), if not should it be dropped?
