A VLC extension that adds a menu option to delete video files from disk while playing them.
What is vlc-delete?
VLC Delete is a lightweight Lua extension for VLC Media Player that allows users to delete video files from their filesystem directly within the player. It solves the problem of cluttered media libraries by providing a quick way to remove unwanted videos while watching them, streamlining the cleanup process.
VLC users who frequently manage large video collections and want to delete files without switching to a file manager. It's particularly useful for those organizing downloaded media or curating personal libraries.
It integrates seamlessly into VLC's menu system, requires no complex setup, and offers a focused solution that VLC lacks natively. The optional trash support on Linux adds safety against accidental deletions.
