How to delete an individual movie version


Recommended Posts

Hi

I'm running Emby Theatre 3.0.11 on Windows 10

I've noticed that if I inadvertently record a movie twice, it appears as a version in the Emby library.  However I dont see any way of then deleting this duplicate version.  I see an option to split the versions which shows both versions separately in the library.  But then if I delete one of these, it deletes the entire folder thus deleting both versions.

Is there any way I can avoid this?  Ideally I'd like to be able to do one of the following:

  - Delete just one version of the movie without deleting the entire folder if there's another version in the folder
  - Have an option to not record a movie if I already have it

 thanks

Good question but it is more of a server question then an app question.

I do not see a way in Emby to do selective version deletes, as you mentioned it deletes the entire item folder.  So from a auto grouped naming scheme structure you currently can not delete one version. @Luke

You can use File Explorer outside Emby.

Yes this is something that needs to be improved. Thanks for the feedback.
