Filter Empty Groups Automatically
Our Advanced Cleanup modal has a dedicated toggle called 'Remove Empty Groups'. Running this purges any group metadata that holds no active streams.
Reorganize the Remaining Folders
Once empty groups are cleared, you can merge similar groups (e.g., combining 'UK Movies' and 'UK Cinema') to keep folders concise.
Why Empty Groups Cause Guide Lag
Most players parse every group category on startup. Empty groups increase database indices in player memory, lagging folder initialization.
Steps to Consolidate Group Schemes
Import your file, head to the Optimizer, toggle duplicate cleaning and group normalization, and click apply to wipe blank groups.
