I have a TV library on my server that is essentially a DVR. I don’t want to retain things long term but I want them to be there for a while for users to watch if they want. For me, I want this to be 30 days. It is GREAT that I can set a show to only keep episodes from the last 30 days but why can’t I set this as a library default for ALL shows in that library. It is tedious to remember to go in there every time a new show is added.
