Can't delete Movies?

I have a 36-part lecture series in the Movies folder, and have attempted to delete each one after watching (ten so far). They all still seem to be there -- if you can't delete them in Channels DVR, why is the choice there?

Did you record them using Channels DVR, or are you using the pre-Alpha Movies Import option.
If Movies Import, then that's the way it currently works (it's pre-Alpha).

Yes, imported. I understand pre-Alpha, OK.

Starting with v2021.02.24.2307, imported videos which have been sent to Trash will be deleted off of the disk when the Trash is cleaned out. This fixes the issue where deleting an imported video would make it reappear after a few days (when it got scanned in again).

In the latest client betas, you can now set Allow Delete to Just DVR Recordings.

In the latest server prerelease, you can now force all your clients to have specific settings. See Beta - Server Side Client Settings
