Syncing Recordings

My setup is as follows:

– Linux Mint running TvHeadEnd and Emby Server
– Various Kodi 17.1 clients connecting to above.

Syncing the watched/progress status for Movies and Tv Shows works very well across all Kodi clients thanks to the Emby plugin. However, I’m having a hard time finding an elegant solution to sync AND manage recordings. If I add the recordings folder to a library in Emby, it syncs the watched status, but to delete an old (watched) recording I need to go into the the Recordings folder (Live TV -> Recordings) were it’s NOT synced, making it a pain to keep track of what to delete.

I’ve tried using UPnP to share the libraries, but it doesn’t seem to work. I think maybe I don’t properly understand the way Emby, Kodi and the PVR add-on interact? Anyway, any help greatly appreciated.
