I have changed the settings in OpenPLI to get deleted movies erased right away, without using the trash !

OpenPLi will delete files in trash automatically, in the background, based on minimum space and maximum days configured.
You can empty the trash manually by navigating to the trash folder, and press the red button. It will prompt you to empty the trash.

You're not trying to delete recordings, but entire directories?
The trashcan is there so that your storage isn't overloaded with requests, thus corrupting recordings running at the same time. It is not a smart idea to disable the trashcan.
If you want to delete files in the trashcan, you can simply navigate to them in the trashcan, and press red to delete them immediately. But it is better just to press Red on the trashcan, and have Enigma empty it.

There is ZERO relation to space on a device and the state of Enigma.
And Enigma will empty trash when needed, you can define in the settings how much space you want to have available at a minimum. Enigma will delete files from trash after the number of days configured, or earlier if you run out of space.
There is virtually no reason to do anything manually, the only reason I can think of is a process other than Enigma2 using the same storage. In which case you can configure Enigma to empty trash immediately.

This is what i mean because Enigma will delete the recorded files from the trash after of days configured. therefore, if you look at the free space of the hard disk after deleting the recorded files from the hard disk and from the trash, you will find that it has not changed until you do an Enigma restart or a restart of the box .
This is what happened to brentener... He deleted the recorded files from the hard disk and from the trash, and when he looked at the free space in the hard disk... he found that it was the same size as before ... it had not changed.

There is some optimisation in Enigma to avoid repeated disk access, but that doesn't warant an Enigma restart, if value will adjust after a few seconds.

I have set up automatic deletion in the trash for all boxes to 365 days - it's safer, especially if more people, especially children, are working with the box. The trash is emptied manually using RED button on Trash - "Empty Trash." Remember that the freed space is displayed gradually as the files are deleted in the background. Occasionally, it's good to perform a "Check Filesystem" in the disk settings (sometimes it's necessary to restart the GUI first before run check disk).
