Delete Collections Library

[AJV_20 35]

I’m trying to get rid of the collections library but I don’t see an option. Before I could do it but now it looks like is forced on us. 
 

I also tried going to the movies library settings but all I can change are the minimum requirements to create a collection

@AJV_20do you have any collections, or is it empty?

There really is no way to remove the Collections library if you have Collections.  All you can do is hide if on the Home Screen settings.

If you have went in and Deleted all Collections and have a Empty Collections library then you can use the API to remove the library as Emby does not automatically do that when they no longer exist.

Everything is covered in the "How To" for creating the library when it was officially removed for a while as you need the parentid for the library to remove.

Note if you have Collections and delete this library Emby will recreate it.

Honestly this looks complicated, are there plans to include an easier version to get this done?

We should, yes. But until then that's a trick that he's come up with.
