  3. Added a reminder to remove devices in the device management page.
    When deleting a path in the device directory, a reminder will pop up and disappear automatically after the deletion is complete. This improves operational feedback.

    Disallow: The system will skip the missing episodes on the server and move them to the Unmatched category.
