Move only vid files from folder and then move rest to trash

Hi,

My file structure:

When I download a video it goes into the downloads > tv shows folder with this structure:
...TV Show downloaded
......TV show video file
......txt file
......sometimes another random file

I then have a rule setup to move only the video file to another folder I have.

Problem: How do I then delete the 'TV show downloaded' folder and all its remaining contents?

Here is an album with the three rules I currently have: http://imgur.com/a/28RQT

It looks like your Delete rule will just delete everything. How do you want to identify folders to remove? The lack of a video file in it? For something like that, you can use a nested condition. See this article: https://www.noodlesoft.com/kb/how-to-cr ... onditions/

You can create a nested condition to match a folder based on whether any of its sub-files is a video file.
