Full Version: Keep "Watched" and "In Progress" status when video file is moved

I had to move a bunch of video files around on my different hard drives and their status was lost. Would be nice to have an option when updating or cleaning the database to "KEEP" these statuses.
For example I moved Maverick from the K drive to the L drive and it was no longer tagged as "watched".

Export library as separate files and then add this to advanced settings -

Code:
<videolibrary>
   <importwatchedstate>true</importwatchedstate>
 </videolibrary>

Thanks for the response but doesn't quite do it for me. Tedious, the export to individual files doesn't allow you to select the destination director. Also still loses those In Progress resume times.

So my enhancement request still stands.

What you are after is a standard function. See here... http://kodi.wiki/view/Import-Export_library

Please take the time to read it. Every request you made is in there.

Whether it "does it for you" is irrelevant, and functions won't be modified to accommodate your personal tastes.
