I asked this in the skin specific section but realized its probably a problem not related to a single skin. My In Progress TV shows is not updating as new content is availible, I am running refocus big and also using a reccomended widget which updates each time I visit the home page. How do I get In Progress tv to update so it has the latest stuff and doesnt keep showing me shows that when I drill into are already watched.

I've been trying to find a setting anywhere for this, I've noticed that rebooting the box causes it to rescan for the data to populate the view but other than that it seems to never change.

I keep getting bounced around from thread to thread because I guess its a bit confusing to which menu I am referring to.
The In Progress TV shows I am talking about is "Videos > In Progress TV Shows" but a lot of skins have it located under the tv shows section like aeon nox and refocus big. My skin widgets are working fine on the main screen, but the menu In Progress TV menu never updates except on system reboots.

I guess I'll just abandon this view and use the widget. I can always browse me TV shows and filter for unwatched stuff but this view was a nice way to see what you are working on.

Glad its not just my system doing this. I'd resorted to rebooting daily in sync with the library updates to try and resolve this.

Is therea way to add In progress TV shows to Confluence sub menu on TV SHOWS instead of diving into VIDEOS and going that way?
TIA

Does anyone have an opinion as to whether this is a feature or a bug of xbmc? It seems xbmc caches certain dynamic playlists when accessed directly from the skin main menu. As well as the in progress tv shows I experience this behavior with some random smart playlists of mine, as well as the simpleplaylists addon (when accessed via the Amber skin's 'shelf' menu, but not when accessed via browsing).
I've had a search to see if there's some kind of setting to tell xbmc not to cache these playlists, but have had no luck. Seeing as 'recently added' does not have this issue I'd assume there must be some kind of cache flush happening somewhere.
If anyone has any ideas of how to fix this issue I'd be all ears!
