Delete Track

I'm trying to do something that seems like the answer should be very obvious, but I can't figure out how to delete a track once it's been uploaded to Podcast Producer. It looks like I should use the pcastaction deletetracks option, but I don't understand what PRB is and what input/output file does the syntax help refer to. Does anyone have an example of the syntax or better yet a different way to do this?

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.5.8), None

I'm having the same issue. I've had a look in /Library/Podcast Producer/Shared and the UUIDs folder contains aliases to what looks like relevant .prb bundles. In fact this seems to be where PCP2 stores all the gumph it needs and as you might expect it is not world-readable. You can also more easily find a relevant prb string from the URL of the feed article itself when navigating to feed://yoursite.com:8171/podcastproducer/catalogs

Unfortunately when issuing this command with both sudo and the --prb argument all I get is:

"mysite.com pcastaction[45048] <Critical>: You do not the correct permissions for this action."

I get the impression this option is a little bit unpolished...

I'd love to know why everything these days is spewing out xml crap.
Lovely for computers, supposedly.

Useless for us poor old humans.
