Marking episode(s) in XBMC if watched

I don’t know if this is even possible but I will give it a shot.

When you watch an episode in XBMC it usually marks it as watched. I would like to know if there is a way for NzbDrone to mark an episode as watched, if it was in fact already watched. I know that NzbDrone has the option to update the library but it would be cool if it would also update the watched flag as well.

Maybe through trakt integration, but we have no plans to support that directly (because we would have to support each application via our own implementation).

I see, maybe one day.

Thanks

shedrock … use trakt it works very well… and very streamlined

I do use it, but I meant if an episode that you already watched and then drone overwrites it with a better quality release.

I know NzbDrone will update the library, but at the moment it has no way of knowing that I watched that particular episode.

Wouldn’t trakt just know that I watched an episode? It has no way of knowing what NzbDrone is doing. Or am I missing something?

how i have mine set is to clean library on update and trakt runs right after… and i have no issues

@Clayboy so NzbDrone tells XBMC to update and clean library then a trakt sync runs automatically marks the better quality as watched?

@markus101 thats how i have it set and seems to work well i dont see doubles in my trakt or my library when a proper replaces one before it…

The double in the library won’t be an issue because drone takes care of that if it cleans the library if set to do so. I do recall in the past some of the files that are overwritten with better quality being checked off as watched, but looking in to it now I see that it is not consistent. This is usually possible of course if XBMC is on at the moment.

If XBMC is in the off state, it has no way of knowing what took place, so now when you do a library scan for new content, it will see that replaced files as unwatched.
