That is not really solving the problem, that is avoiding the problem. Going back to an earlier version doesn't magically make the problem go away in newer versions.
Creating new records for refreshed items in the video (and probably also music) database is not a good practice, but it has been that way since the very beginning. Then it was all in the early stages of database programming (people didn't know any better, I guess), now we should know better. Watched statuses should be kept when refreshing database items IMO, it shouldn't be that much of a problem even with workarounds.

It's possible that this database got corrupted somehow and certain updates didn't happen, making the watched status remain the same. Who knows.
