Delete Media File Fast - auscoop - 2014-04-13

I have a general question on deleting media files after watching them.
I am using a media computer running Linux with XBMC Gotham installed. I download my favorite TV shows on auto pilot and after I watch them I generally delete the file. Using my Logitech Harmony I have to use 10 key presses over 2 context menu screens to accomplish this. I just wanted to check if there is an easier/faster way to delete a media file in perhaps 1-2 key presses?
Thanks for your help guys!

You can create a keymap (wiki) so a button directly does "delete". However, in your case I would recommend using the File Cleaner add-on. It can automate the deletion for you, and you can specify special rules so only certain things get auto deleted, and only under certain conditions. It's great for people who typically delete the video after watching it: Add-on:XBMC File Cleaner (wiki)

Brilliant - the file cleaner is exactly what I need.
Thanks for that Ned Big Grin
