How to remove the 'Movies' menu created from Local Content?

Channels DVR Server
#1

I decided to test Local Content for my movie library, instantly regretted it. Decided that Plex was the appropriate app for this.

I removed the path to my movies and deleted the Movie folder manually under my server, however it is not gone and there are still dozens of movies showing up.

Gotta be simple.....

How to remove?

In the DVR web UI: Settings > Local Content > Maintenance > Prune Deleted

Thanks for replying. I did that first but it seems to have no effect.

Did you wait for it to fully import and scan before removing it? This was an issue in the past, and it was solved by re-adding the source, waiting for it to fully import and scan, and then finally removing the source.

Also, have you restarted the server?

I didn't wait for the full import. I thought I had but I have a lot of movies and it was still importing after I remove the path.

I have restarted the server. No effect. Maybe I just need to do the full import?

You can run the following:

curl -XDELETE http://x.x.x.x:8089/dvr/scanner/imports
