garbage files being left around after shows are deleted..?
Anyone else noticing this? It might be one of my plugins but I'm not sure how the architecture of sage works internally to say.. What I do know is that when a new TV show is added to Sage that a metadata file (for lack of a better term) is created along side the actual media file. Then, later, you delete that show after watching it and almost all of the time the metadata file still remains cluttering up your HD.. Unfortunately I don't recall the file extension off the top of my head since I'm at work..

Anyone else notice this?

If it matters, I've got comskipping enabled, SD-EPG program guide and a handful of other plugins.

You choose the plugins so you choose to create the garbage therefore you have to take out the garbage. I use Dirmon2 to take out my garbage.

I think the comskip plugin offers cleanup as well.

Yup. Just add the file extension to the list of files to delete when the video is deleted.
