How can one remove entries in the library of movies / series which do not exist anymore or are moved without removing the entries of movies / series being on external drives not being plugged in at the moment?
Quote:In 16.1... System - Settings - Video - Library. You need to toggle Settings level to Advanced or Expert, the Clean Library... option will appear.As far as I know that option deletes all of the entries of movies / series not being accessible at that time.
Quote: Or I think if you try and play them you'll get an error pop-up with the option to remove them from the library.Yes, indeed, that is true, but to delete the entries in that manner would need days or weeks.

Quote:While cleaning the library a popup should appear what to do with a source that is unavailable. Choose 'keep' for the external drives that are not connected and they will stay in the library.That would be great. Yes, I am just doing a back up - lasts some time obviously, about 150.000 files - and after I will try.
Quote: Fair enough - you didn't actually say how many you were talking about WinkWell, well, fair enough, yes, that is true also of course, and a good thought anyway to remove entries by using that error message.
