What metadata is for livetv - Lost_Ones - 2024-09-16
Hello,
I am hoping to get a better understanding of the metadata that is used for live TV. Being that my Config/cache is on a docker, the storage space is a bit limited. I have noticed that I have close to 3 gig if metadata in my live TV cache --> /opt/jellyfin/config/metadata/livetv, there thhere are sub directories like this --> /opt/jellyfin/config/metadata/livetv/de24ed3b675eaec513f87e92c0c8053d, and in that sub directory is a poster.jpg. There are hundreds if not thousands of them.
Are they needed? Do these get auto cleaned out ( of is this part of the open 'issue' of the live TV transcoding files not being cleaned out by the system settings ). If these are not necessary, I imaging that I can clean them out with a cronjob, but will this affect the database? What is safe to remove?
Regards.
