Deleting Clips From the Clip Database
You use the Housekeeping tab to remove clips from the clip database. To
manage the size of the clip database, you should remove clips from the database
when they are no longer needed.
When you delete clips with the Housekeeper utility you remove them from both
the NewsQ Pro database and the Profile Video Server database.
Moving Files to the Recycle Bin
To delete clips, you first need to move them to the Recycle Bin.
To move files:
1. Select the clip you want to delete.
2. Click the right arrow or drag the clip from the Clips area to the Recycle Bin.
The clip moves into the Recycle Bin.
To move more than one clip at a time, hold down the Ctrl key while selecting
clips and then drag the files into the Recycle Bin. You can also select a
consecutive range of clips by holding down the
Shift key, clicking the first clip
in the range, and then clicking the last clip in the range.
NOTE: If you move a file by mistake, drag it back into the Clips area.
