Before using the delete feature please try a few dry runs to get acquainted with mediacurator as it can irreparably damage your media library when not used properly.
When using the -del flag here is the expected behavior:
To delete all non-hd videos in a folder:
.. code-block:: bash
mediacurator list -del -filters:lowres -dirs/-files:"/mnt/media/"
To delete all substandard videos in a folder:
.. code-block:: bash
mediacurator list -del -filters:subsd -dirs/-files:"/mnt/media/"
.. image:: ../_static/Screenshot-delete.png

:alt: Deleting videos
To delete all videos in a folder with encoding errors:
.. code-block:: bash
mediacurator list -del -filters:fferror -dirs/-files:"/mnt/media/"
To convert (repair) then delete all videos in a folder with encoding errors:
.. code-block:: bash
mediacurator convert -del -filters:fferror -dirs/-files:"/mnt/media/"
To delete all videos in a folder:
.. code-block:: bash
mediacurator list -del -filters:lowres -dirs/-files:"/mnt/media/"
All these commands can have valuable use but are irrecoverable if done unintended.
Again, please try a few dry runs without -del until you are acquainted with mediacurator.
