Bring back the option to Delete files

With the newest beta client the option to delete watched videos has been removed. Please bring that back. I literally use it every time I use Plex.

What client is that? (platform and version)

Client Version 5.0.4
Running on a Visio TV.

maybe double check the server?

also, if you are in a home, make sure the user is the admin user

My server allows media deletion.

The delete feature worked this morning. After the update, there is now no option to delete.

My other TV in the house is using an older client. It will has the delete feature and it works well.

@jeffbroughton: Don’t fret, the delete option will be back in the next preview update :wink:.

Great. I hope it comes soon. That is a very useful feature.

Update: This feature is back and working again. Happy to see that.

Generally I like the new setup. It is a good upgrade. However, there are two other problems with the beta.

  1. Subtitles keep loading automatically. By default, I don’t need them. So I need to keep turning off Subtitles.

  2. I prefer folder view. However, the beta keeps switching back to movie view. So I need to set it to folder view each time.

Thanks for the report.

Yeah this is a bug. Someone else also reported this. You should be able to fix it by either hitting the CC button on your remote or disabling subtitles in the TV settings. Changing these is supposed to toggle settings, but only if you toggle them during playback or on a preplay. Hopefully we should have this fixed soon.

I’ll file an issue for this.
