Live TV Transcodes not deleting - shrimpforx - 2025-05-02
Hey y'all!
I run Jellyfin on an LXC container in Proxmox. I notice that whenever I stream live TV from my HDHomeRun tuner using Jellyfin, it saves the transcodes to /var/cache/jellyfin/transcodes. This of course, fills up over time and then eventually renders Jellyfin completely unusable as the container has no space left. Then I have to go in and delete the transcodes manually. I've recently setup a cron job to delete the files in that directory weekly, but I am wondering if there is a way to have Jellyfin delete the transcode cache immediately after leaving Live TV.
Thank you!!!
