I'd be interested to know about quick change hotkey as well as bulk editing the watched staus.

I also note that, with the <playcount> set to '1' in the nfo file by Ember, XBMC doesn't register the watched status (even after refeshing using local copy). I've tried toggling it to '0' in the nfo as well.

Any ideas?

Have to edit your advancedsettings.xml and set the <importwatchedstate>true</importwatchedstate>. I just did that and that seems to have worked. http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=Advancedsett...library.3E

No "quick-key" or hotkey atm in Ember.
Atm the best way is to use trakt.tv (plugin in XBMC and misc.-module in Ember) to sync XBMC and Ember.

I'd rather not share my data online, I'm sure you understand what with all the privacy leaks nowadays being very common .
