Firestick and Roku delete recordings - Lost_Ones - 2024-09-11

Hello Firestick Roku users. I am able to record live TV shows, then play the recording, but maybe I am missing it. I don't see where I can delete a recording.  Any direction to locate it would be great.  Server side, the users have permission, but I would assume the client would be unaware. 

Thank you

I'm not at home to check my Roku (I don't use it much), but on Firesticks/Android TV the option to delete is still present but you have to enable it in the options. IIRC its Options > Customization > Enable media management. Or something like that.

Thank you much for the input, your help is awesome as always. My folks were able to find the function easily with your direction for the Firestick. I have an older Roku and I have yet to find the function. It may not exist.

Regards,

It probably doesn't. I don't recall having seen it before. Even the Android TV app used to have media management on by default, but it is not hidden behind a setting. And it may go away entirely.

I agree with that move, btw. IMO, media management is not suitable on a TV. You should be doing it in the web UI or file system.
