Android TV Delete Season?

[Sammy 790]

I see that it is possible to delete each individual Episode in a Season in a TV Show and I can delete all Seasons and included Episodes in a TV Show but I do not see the option to delete any particular Season and the included Episodes. Am I correct or am I missing something? This is the AndroidTV Client BTW but I think it is server wide although I have not verified.

 

Is it possible to delete just one Season of a TV Show?

It may have just not been added to the Android TV app yet, but it is supported.

Long press select on the season will display the menu with the delete option but only if the season has been played. Otherwise delete is not listed.

I'm not sure that was intended but it isn't a bad idea .  Look at all the complaints out here of people deleting series without knowing that is what they are doing...

Interesting. Any ETA on when this will be working in AndroidTV or is it a long press in AndroidTV? Is this possible with Harmony Remotes and FLIRC Receivers?

 

We'd only be deleting a season if / when we wanted to delete the season but wouldn't one of those "Are you very sure" pop ups saying you're about to delete the entire season suffice?

Apparently not .  People tend not to read those types of popups.

 

We have plans to change this deletion process so that it will be much harder to delete these things without knowing it.

 

Thanks.

So someone doesn't read the warning and then blames the developer for the deletion? SMH!

BTW, I noticed you moved the topic, @@ebr so I suppose it is available but just not on AndroidTV devices? No harm in going into the library and deleting a season but it would be easier for my wife to do it from the app.

Ah, so it's a "feature", not a bug.

It's there now. What I described is how it works on my Shield.

Don't know about differences in remotes so IR might not work the same way.

In this one particular test I was using my Samsung TV Remote and CEC. The menu came up with a long press but the delete option was not there. This is Stable 4.4.2.0 Server and Beta 1.7.99g AndroidTV.

[Q-Droid 989]

Are all episodes played? What if you mark the season as played?

 

Also if the menu is at the bottom you might have to scroll down as the delete entry could be off screen.

[Sammy 790]

Okay.. @@ebr you might be interested in this..

 

If I long press on the season in the series section of the app and select Mark as Played, the Delete button shows. If I enter the season and select Mark all as Watched from within the season then exit out, not only are all not marked as watched, I cannot delete the season as Emby doesn't think they are all watched.

AndroidTV Log Sent just now. User is TVTime.

[ebr 16176]

I didn't see any mark watched activity in that log.  Looked like navigating around in the global favorites view is all...

 

Did you check your server log for errors?

[Q-Droid 989]

I can reproduce, sort of. I'm on latest stable for ATV.

 

If I change played status from the long press menu I get the option to delete.

If I change played status from within the season and go back to series the delete option is there.

If I navigate away to home and come back the delete option is gone.

If I go into the season and back to series the delete option is back.

 

The long press menu is not consistent.

Interesting. I entered he Series "First 48" from the main "Latest TV" Menu Strip then I went to one of the Seasons and set the watch status, both ways available and then attempted a delete of a Season. This may explain why it isn't respecting manually set watched status. I'll try again and get server logs at the same time.
