For the life of me no matter what I do I am running into two issues.
First all recordings are considered movies. This is literally everything I have tried from daily news shows to kids tv shows its all considered a movie.

Secondly after recording these “Movies” (or so plex seems to think) I cant delete them from the DVR. I have even deleted the file from my file system and it stays there as if I have these recordings…
Almost in love with this feature but these two things are killing me.

Some documentaries are classed as movies in the EPG

Your screenshot was of the DVR schedule and not the library

Are you referring to deleting the recorded movies in the Recorded Movies library ?

For deletion of library media items, you would need to empty the trash after the deletion

See this support article on deleting items in the library
