Dear bro, I don't user Video Station for storing video.

I intend to use it to host my course video, but I cannot remove default library just like Movies, TV Show, Home Video..., I just can create new library and set the name for it. I can hidden them from user but user can config to show it again.

How do I solve this problem? Thank you.

Uninstall Video Station (and possibly, Media Server). Then the shared system folder may be deleted by an admin.

It is risky to use shared system folders for access by 3rd party packages... ex., Jellyfin... for Synology may choose to rewrite their permissions with any update.

Create a shared folder "media" (or whatever name you prefer) for your movies, TV shows, etc.,
 
How can the user configure it? Do they have Admin privileges?
What are you trying to do? Do you want to have access to video station and no one else?
Standard users can adjust which libraries they can see ...

The top four are default libraries and the admin user cannot stop them from being public. Other libraries can be public or private. Where public libraries are accessible to all Video Station users (public doesn't mean open to the Internet) the private libraries have their access allowed for particular users. My bottom two libraries happen to be public but I have a number of private libraries that are not visible to my Home (TV account): one per family member in a personal folder in a shared folder that they can drop their own files.

Thank you Fred, I also set it up in this way.
