also there is an option near the bottom of Playback -> Transcoding, called Delete Segments, This deletes the transcode files right after they were sent to the client.

The original poster of this thread is still on v10.8.13 which does not have this feature.

That feature was introduced in v10.9.

Thank you for the information. You learn something every day.

My 5 cents to this issue - had not problems before with 20GB storage for transcodes, then alarm came that disk is full. Going to sheduled tasks and atvicating manually clear transcode (default 24 hours) - removed about half of that amount. Going to playback, transcode and checking delete, did nothing. Then i checked what is in that drive and saw a lot of *.mp4 files. Deleted them - drive empty now.

Using jellyfin for more that year now, never problems before. When transcoding disk was used and then self cleaned. Maybe after jellyfin update? I'm using now 10.10.1
