Where is that DELETE Button ... ??

[pixelwave]

Hi,

I am trying to find a way to delete some wrongly added movies, but I can not find a button for that. I searched the Forum but somehow the button in the lower right corner is missing?

And when I click "Owned Videos" Button in right window the program crashes...

Of course, the program should not crash.

Instead a window should appear, with the description of your owned video, and the "remove fom owned" button at the bottom right corner.

Your bug seems related to this one:

And strangely I have no issue on my computer.

I will create a test version. When you'll run it, it'll help me to locate the bug. Should be ready in a few minutes.

Please try this test version:

It will display a series of numbers, and depending on where it stop, I'll be able to locate the bug. Thank you very much !

The crashing bug is supposed to be fixed.

Are you sure you're using the latest version of the program (v2.85) ?

(you can see your version number in the title bar)

Sorry about I'm asking this question again but I can't delete movie added by mistake, no matter what tried.

I can't find any delete button, even that one you mentioned and which should be in lower right corner.
That button simply doesn't exist in my Coollector, and I tried several different version (2.87 until 2.93 which I'm using now).

So tell me what is wrong with this and what I'm suppose to do with that problem!?

Tnx in advance.

It's not the corner of the main window. It's the corner of the window that gives the technical details of your owned video.

Go to the movie you own, then click the "owned videos" box, and you'll find the technical details window.

Yes, I know, but there is similar situation.
Everything is the same except there are only movies added by me.
There is also no delete button.

If you don't believe here is another one screenshot - this time of owned movies window, and can see that there is no delete buton.

and can see that there is no delete buton.

I said CLICK the "owned videos" box (the cursor is a hand, to show that you can click).

If you own only one video of that movie, the technical details will appear immediatly.

If you own several videos, you'll have to choose which video you want to see the details.

OK, everything is clear now.

I never thought that it could be some other Owned Videos that one in a ribbon, until you told me so.

Anyway, I think it could have been much easier, with one visible "delete" button instead of this but never mind - app is still great.

Thanks for answer.

Ok, now I understand better the confusion.

Well, the global "owned videos" will list all the videos that you own, while each movie also has its "owned videos" box to list your videos of that movie.

In the future, the "owned videos" box and the "existing videos" box will be modified, to show the video covers. It'll be slightly easier to find the technical details, as you'll just have to click the cover.

I accidentally added about 20 incorrect episodes files to a series, is there a quick way to delete them all? (Currently deleting them one by one)

ie. clicked owned videos box -> scroll through list -> click episode -> click remove from owned -> click yes, remove

(Do again 19 times)

Sorry, there is no other way than what you do.

What kind of other way do you imagine there could be ?

Maybe check boxes could help... That's the only thing that comes to mind right now. I never really thought about it.

Hey! wait a minute, Doesn't your Folder Scanning Feature have a function that prevents adding a video file that's already in the database.

IDEA...That means that it should also be able to run a similar procedure that scans a selected folder (or selected files) and removes all files it finds (that are present in the database) from the database.

Hence removing all files in the users selection from the database.

... Would be much simpler than checkboxes (I think)
