Hi there. This is a configuration question and ultimately it is not a particular problem. I've done scans of several main folders with a total of about 20K files. When done the first couple of dozen listings show no icon/cover but there are a bunch of listings. When I clik on one of them it shows 2 or more links for that title. So there may be abc-124.mp4 and abc124.mp4 and maybe abc-124 buttpluggers anonymous.mp3. All 3 got associated with that name. The links don't give me the option to delete and since there are mutiple files associated with that file you can't click on what would be the cover and delete that way. Some of these dupes aren't strictly dupes, for example ncy-123.ts and ncy123.ts are, for the most part, dupes except the latter has trailers at the end of the video which adds about 15-30 Minutes to the video. Anyway if I go to the folder(s) with the dupes or quasi-dupes and delete all but one of the titles the javluv listings still show the 3 titles associated with the name. I tried re-running a scan in that directory but since the titles are already listed in javluv it won't re-scan or update the data. My only solution to this that I've found is to delete all of the img and nfo files from the directory and starting again with a fresh scan. I'm hoping that there is a better method for this issue. As I have said many times this program is fantastic and this is a First-World problem and one that I can live with but if there's a method to accomplish this, I would be grateful to know it. Cheers..
If Im getting this right. You are scanning your files in JavLuv and you are getting a lot of blank covers for Video IDs it doesn't recognise or no scraper for? and then you wish to delete them from JavLuv?
If this is the case. Do you want to keep the Videos? If not then go back to the main window so they all show at the top. Select the first one you want gone and and Press Shift, Keep it Pressed [Allows you to select multiples in a continuous train], Select the last one and then release shift and right click on them and select delete [Be careful, none recycle bin delete]
If you want to keep them but JavLuv wont Erase the .nfo files and so they remain [They could be set to Read only files and also if you are running a AV like Norton then cause JavLuv isn't digitally signed, it will panic when Javluv goes to delete a file and so you have to add it as an exception in Norton or Whichever AV]
A few ways you can approach this..
First select all the files you wanna forget with the previous method but don't delete, instead select Delete Meta Data.
I'm not sure on rules on Linking tbh so
@SamKook is this allowed? Its safe, been using for years but its direct linking..
Still Not Working. Download: [Everything]

Install. Its basically the best disk indexer that ive ever used and free. Now just type the ID of the title once its scanned your drives and then manually delete all files associated to said ID.
If you are planning on keeping the vids then its best to put them in a not scanned folder I've found.
If you are getting multiple vids under the same title, I have had this. Only way is to manually delete said .nfo file and rescan. If you are getting multiple under the same name but variations on the full title [Not Different ID] then this was done to Allow for say A B and C parts like: AUKG-001 A, AUKG-001 B. You can rename all your variation. I have several including [Upscaled] [RM-Reduced Mosaic] and [60FPS] so on....
They currently all have to reside in the same folder or you will get log alerts saying the file already exists [So the new one is skipped]. Use Everything and put in the ID. Now look at the location and sort from there or move to the same folders and then rescan the video so JavLuv Picks up on the changes.
Also when I say Rescan. Dont Regenerate Metadata unless you absolutely have to on existing videos as the scarpers Fubar at the moment with actresses, TMPguy is working on a solution. Rescan looks for changes to the actual video like added files and name changes.
