XBMC doesn't recognizes films as watched - feliche - 2014-10-28

Hi,

I can set films as watched on TMM without issues but afterwards XBMC, once updating new content, not recognizes those films as watched.

Any suggestion?

Thank you

You didn't delete the movie on XBMC side, did you?
IIRC (and at least all the old version have this behaviiour) XBMC does not do an "update" to an already imported movie/show Sad
It just reads the NFO when it is not in threi DB.
You might want to try to delete one movie, and then press update...

An other idea would be, to use trakt.tv for that.
There's a plugin for XBMC and as donator of TMM you could sync that Smile

Hi Myron,

The XBMC version is the last DSplayer Gotham available.

Should it works if:

a) I clean my library before add again all media.
b) I add the media in over a new XBMC installation.

Thank you very much for your respond Smile

I've the same problem with TV Shows.

1) I've deleted the show from XBMC library.
2) I've deleted all .nfo files
3) I've updated all new info of the serial with TMM
4) I've refreshed the show in the XBMC

Still I having the same problem. In TMM the episiodes are mark as "watched" but I can't make XBMC refresh the show as "watched" even after delet .nfo files.

Any idea?

I have the same issue.

I am also using Gotham.

This is true. Tags won't update unless you delete the movie and re-add. Watched status does not update even if you re-add the movie. TinyMM watched status has never worked for me.

I lost the link but I had found some other thread about TinyMM watched status not being recognized.

Interestingly, this seems not to work out-of-the-box.

According to
http://kodi.wiki/view/Advancedsettings#videolibrary
you need to set this in advancedsettings.xml, to import that flag.
Code:
<advancedsettings>
...
  <videolibrary>
   ...
    <importwatchedstate>true</importwatchedstate>  <!-- import previously exported playdate and playcount from .nfo files. Defaults to false -->
   ...
  </videolibrary>
...
</advancedsettings>

Dunno why, but it worked for me Smile

Actually it worked for me this time. I believe Kodi was not looking at my .nfo files before on my previous attempt, so it was not a good test. Still it is good to have the advancedsettings info. Thanks.

Thank you very much
