Is there a way to automatically remove the source video from the rawmedia folder after a video is successfully converted?

We're aware of this need, it will fail on some setups (no permissions on shared). To be patched shortly.

Hard to let go. Right?
Sorry to see you leaving us!

Good stuff. For those who don't want to wait, a simple shell script on a */5 cron can do the trick:

Code Select Expand

#!/bin/bash
find "/var/www/html/rawmedia" -type f -mmin +120 -print0 | xargs -0 rm -f
echo "No." > /var/www/html/rawmedia/index.html

Adjust the paths as necessary. This will delete raw media uploads which haven't been touched in 2 hours (giving the system more than enough time to encode/convert the source).
