When adding a video to the schedule, they also get placed in the img folder under .quelea in Windows. Why does this happen? It’s a waste of space; deleting the duplicate ones in the vid folder make them disappear from the database, so I don’t get what even the purpose of video files being copied to the img folder is whatsoever.
