Nabukodonosor 11 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 I've noticed that when I delete a watched movie, all the metadata are still in the emby server folder. All cached images are there. How to make emby delete all that once the movie is deleted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37099 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 HI, how did you delete the movie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabukodonosor 11 Posted February 26 Author Share Posted February 26 Like always, in Emby I go to delete the movie, it asks me if I'm sure I want to permanently delete it, I confirm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8296 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Can you provide a specific example as this sounds like it maybe platform specific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nabukodonosor 11 Posted February 26 Author Share Posted February 26 Log file? Now, or should I wait until I delete a movie? I mean, it's simple, last night I watched and deleted the movie Brothers, and today I was searching for something and by accident found out that I still have images from that movie on my SSD, where my emby config folder lives. Or this movie, I watched and deleted this one last week: https://prnt.sc/pzwtjgRJpZ4o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nabukodonosor 11 Posted February 26 Author Share Posted February 26 (edited) Yes, cached images. Well, that sounds great. So, in theory once I delete a movie, everything from my SSD (where emby lives, my movies are on a HDD) should also be deleted? Apart from the cache.

Happy2Play 8296 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 (edited) Okay yes there is a hidden cache cleanup task that runs daily and deleted anything 30 days old and rebuilt as needed. 2024-02-26 02:45:20.961 Debug TaskManager: IntervalTrigger fired for task: Cache file cleanup 2024-02-26 02:45:20.961 Debug TaskManager: Queueing task DeleteCacheFileTask 2024-02-26 02:45:20.961 Debug TaskManager: Executing Cache file cleanup 2024-02-26 02:45:25.335 Debug TaskManager: Cache file cleanup Completed after 0 minute(s) and 4 seconds But you can delete all cache at anytime and it will rebuild what it needs.
