Hi, i installed pms that gonna be watched on two smart tv-s for me and my mother. I’m a free user. I made two libraries and one tv will have one library, other will have other library. My plan was to make two plex libraries, i will using main account on one tv, and my mother will be friend with only one library that i shared with her. But than i will have all her recently added movies on my deck, because i can’t restrict libraries from main user. Than i thought to make 3 accounts, and both me and my mother will be friends with separate libraries, but than i can’t delete movies from my tv as a friend, so is there some trick that i overlook…so my questions are

1. Can i turn on recently watched and recently added (on deck) just for one user (one library)
2. Can friend delete a movie?
3. when i turn off “on deck” do i lose just recently added (which is not that important to me) or do i lose also recently watched (which is important to me)?  
i made automated radarr, sonarr server, and it is very useful to delete movies from my tv. I don’t wish to mess up with server very often…  
Does someone have some suggestions?

Yes you can allow deletion it is a Library server setting.

Hi, you didnt understand me… i’m not english speaker…can friend delete movies from library? It’s not ideal for me to be a main user because all content from my mothers library will be on deck on my library, because i can’t restrict me from seeing some libraries? and i don’t wanna turn off “on deck” for her library because she will lost recently watched status on main screen…

1. no
2. Only the administrator of the server can delete files.
3. you should not loose either

I thought the new release fixed the ability to turn off “On Deck” by setting days to zero.  
Might have read that wrong…
