I also ran into this issue, and after about an hour came up with a solution. Now, after movies or episodes are watched, they no longer show up in the home screen thumbnail list and are replaced with the next ones in line.

The solution involves changing what is displayed in the "IncludesHomeRecentlyAdded.xml" file. You need to replace the "LatestMovie" references with the corresponding "RecentMovie" ones, which are Skin Widgets. Here are the steps I took:

(1) Make sure Skin Widgets are installed. Follow these instructions: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Add...in_Widgets

(2) Then in xbmc go to the Skin Widgets "Configure->Recent Items" tab, and make sure all three items are checked (the first two should be checked by default, and the third item, "Update each time you enter the home screen", will refresh the list when you return to the home screen after watching a file).

(3) Make a backup of your "IncludesHomeRecentlyAdded.xml" file

(4) Open the original "IncludesHomeRecentlyAdded.xml" file (that xbmc will load), and replace the following lines. (I only did movies and episodes):

Here is what you change for Movies. This is for the first item -- you need to change all 10 from "LatestMovie.1" to "LatestMovie.10":

Code:

<item>
    <label>$INFO[Window.Property(LatestMovie.1.Title)]</label>
    <label2></label2>
    <onclick>PlayMedia($ESCINFO[Window.Property(LatestMovie.1.Path)])</onclick>
    <icon>$INFO[Window.Property(LatestMovie.1.Thumb)]</icon>
    <thumb>-</thumb>
    <visible>!IsEmpty(Window.Property(LatestMovie.1.Title))</visible>
</item>

change to:

Code:

<item>
    <label>$INFO[Window.Property(RecentMovie.1.Title)]</label>
    <label2></label2>
    <onclick>PlayMedia($ESCINFO[Window.Property(RecentMovie.1.File)])</onclick>
    <icon>$INFO[Window.Property(RecentMovie.1.Art(poster))]</icon>
    <thumb>-</thumb>
    <visible>!IsEmpty(Window.Property(RecentMovie.1.Title))</visible>
</item>

And here is what you change for episodes (again, change all 10 of them):

Code:

<item>
    <label>$INFO[Window.Property(LatestEpisode.1.EpisodeTitle)]</label>
    <label2>$INFO[Window.Property(LatestEpisode.1.ShowTitle)] - $INFO[Window.Property(LatestEpisode.1.EpisodeNo)]</label2>
    <onclick>PlayMedia($ESCINFO[Window.Property(LatestEpisode.1.Path)])</onclick>
    <icon>-</icon>
    <thumb>$INFO[Window.Property(LatestEpisode.1.Thumb)]</thumb>
    <visible>!IsEmpty(Window.Property(LatestEpisode.1.EpisodeTitle))</visible>
</item>

change to:

Code:

<item>
    <label>$INFO[Window.Property(RecentEpisode.1.Title)]</label>
    <label2>$INFO[Window.Property(RecentEpisode.1.TVshowTitle)] - $INFO[Window.Property(RecentEpisode.1.EpisodeNo)]</label2>
    <onclick>PlayMedia($ESCINFO[Window.Property(RecentEpisode.1.File)])</onclick>
    <icon>-</icon>
    <thumb>$INFO[Window.Property(RecentEpisode.1.Art(thumb))]</thumb>
    <visible>!IsEmpty(Window.Property(RecentEpisode.1.Title))</visible>
</item>

After this, it should work as desired. At least it does on my xbmc! (running 12.2)

Bit of a noob here. Running Openelec off a Raspberry Pi. How do I go on about it? Looking to get the same going within Confluence. Is the xml located somewhere? Or do I need to create one? Thanks!
