I'm a little new to this, but I was able to successfully install PlexConnect on my jailbroken ATV2. My question is: is there a simple way to delete files from my PMS after I watch them on my AppleTV2? Or do I just have to remember what I watched and manually delete them the next time I go to my computer?

&nbsp;

Or, is there a simple solution I'm overlooking? Thank you!

I don't believe PlexConnect has the ability to delete files from your PMS host....yet. You can delete files from PlexWeb and other clients as long as the option is enabled in PMS to allow clients to delete content.

Server tab----\>Show advanced----\>Library----\>Allow Clients to delete media.&nbsp;
