items are incorrectly marked as watched after playback error...

[wwwter 2]

 

If i try to play a file, but it does not play because of a playback error,  emby immediatly marks it as watched......  this should not happen. i did not watch it.

i feel this is unwanted behaviour, do you agree?

Hi, I think you can argue this one either way. Can we please look at an example? Thanks.

I try to play a video file (series episode) which should play, but currently doesnt because of linux file permission problems which i wont get into here. It is then marked as played, so when i want to try again later i have to look up the file in the media section, because it has disappeared from "latest"  etc.  sometimes i forget to uncheck played and have missed episodes because of this.

i dont think logfiles will be useful in this case, it is just a question of how the software should behave when faced with a playback error.   I think it should only mark files as played when they have been played 9x%, not after a playback error (no compatible streams found)

Hi, yes that probably makes sense. Thanks.
