Selectively hide media files from the library?

Is it possible to hide specific media files from the library without having to remove them from the library locations? And the agent won’t re-add them…like some kind of exception list?

sort of

Most of us just mark them as played.

In the event we want them removed from the library - we select ‘Delete’.

I can think of no instance wherein I want a media item put in a ‘stand by’ location - and If I did, I’d move it to a folder Plex isn’t looking at with my file manager.

I DO NOT what Plex involved in deciding what I should keep and what should be discarded. I disabled that crap when I told it NOT to delete items my DVR recorded in some Plex Auto-Fackin-Nightmare even I have no control over or Plex has any notion of what I want.

Items suddenly started showing up missing - before I’d watched them - and that pretty much told me what I should do about it… take Plex OUT of the ‘Delete’ equation.

If it were up to Plex - we’d delete everything that wasn’t Plex Movies and TV. <— and Plex would let us know when we’ve deleted enough.

If you want that - just do it.
From the file manager.

Exactly what I’m looking for, thank you!

I concur, if that’s how I was managing my media content…
