I've been told about this addon as it might do what I'm hoping to do... So I'll ask if it is possible and what configurations options I need to do it...
I want all my channels to play in order of unwatched (xbmc video unwatched marker) video. The tv shows would be randomised, but the sequence of episodes from the each specific tv show would be in order. Is that possible?
Also, since they are running in order, I'd like the video to no continue to play when i'm not watching the channel. In other words, the channel that is currently selected is the only one progressing through time. Is that possible?
Thanks!
Looks like a great addon btw!
Yes..it can do what you want. Please go to this page http://pseudo-tv.blogspot.com/ and look at the channel rules Jason has implemented. Give it a go and let us know how it goes for you. If you need further help, let us know.
Basically you will use these rules "Only play unwatched shows", "Play shows in order", "Always Keep Paused" and "Resume". You can make the channels based on genre, TV Studio or make a playlist containing specific shows to include. There are other selections but I find these to be more than enough. The only problem that some folks have with this is that when one or more shows has many more episodes than other shows. You may end up seeing more of one show in a row than you would like...but there are some ways around that as well.

Thanks! I'll check it out.
Edit: found the settings and it is now doing what I wanted. Thanks for your help!
You are right about a tv show eps stringing together... What are some of the ways I can try to stop eps from the same tv series from showing one after the other?
