Hi, I hope this is the correct place to post. I'm new to both Raspberry and Kodi so please bare with me.
In setting up Kodi to my NAS I varied the source and ended up with 2 versions video library - video (2) and video (3). When I update I get some movie files duplicated and I've spent hours deleting the duplicates only to find on my next update they are back again. I can only assume it is because one of the two libraries is replacing them.
Therefore, how do I delete one of the two video libraries? Nowhere can I find that in the wiki.
I have over 3000 movies so it's a pain. I can live with the duplicates I guess but I thought you guys and gals may have a solution.
Cheers, John

Many thanks but the wiki page you refer to looks and acts nothing like my version - 17.6 - unless I'm going mad.
When I enter "Videos" from the main menue I get a screen showing two lines: Categories and Media sources. The former line shows Movies, TV shows, Music Videos, Files, playlists and video addons. When I enter Files, it shows a page containing 10 selection boxes - genres, a/z title etc. Context menus show play, queue or add to favorites.
In step two of the wiki section 5.1, it shows the page with Videos at top left, and beneath "sort by: name 1/4". My page shows Movies and names 1/9. So "file" on the page in the wiki leads somewhere completely different to my version! That is why I posted as I am at a loss with the wiki.

What version Kodi are you using?
Ignore. Just saw it in your first line.
You are using Kodi, and not a fork of Kodi?
Can you post a screen shot of what you see when you enter Videos

I hope this works. My raspberry is connected to my TV via hdmi so a screenshot is not possible but I attach a pic which I hope you can see ok. It's only part of the scrolling display.
Cheers
Doesn't appear to have an attach file function

On the frist row, you see "Files". That´s what the wiki mentions as well: Enter Videos>Files
. After you select that, your sources will be listed in the next window. Then navigate to the specific source, open up the context menu and select "remove source".
That should do what Milhouse mentioned.

I have also just discovered that in system/media settings/managing sources/videos, the screen shown in the above pic crops up again.
Should I format the Raspberry and start again as something must be wrong somewhere?
