Recording Group

Post by caymann »

I would like to know, how do i
1. Delete a recording group
2. Rename a recording group

I have a Default group and i was playing around to see what it does.
I added a bunch of test groups to play with.
But now i am not able to delete them or rename them.

Any help?
thank you

Try pressing d when you're on one of the groups you want to delete.

Right you are! And I can't find a method using the GUI
to remove them. If you're comfortable using SQL, this
will get you started

Code: Select all

SELECT * FROM recgroups;

Code: Select all

DELETE FROM recgroups WHERE (recgroup='Test' OR recgroup='remote') AND special=0 LIMIT 2;
Is an extra safe way.
