Pirlo1966 22 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I do use MPC-HC as an external player and port 13579 is active but none of my movies gets the 'recently watched' status. What Am I missing? Of course I do play the movie till the end (beyond the 90%). Whatever I try, movies do not get marked as watched. This worked fine in MB2 with same setup.

steelman1991 19 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Check you have 'Played Indicator's' set in the configuration screen Configuration\View Options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirlo1966 22 Posted November 4, 2013 Author Share Posted November 4, 2013 (edited) Check you have 'Played Indicator's' set in the configuration screen Configuration\View Options. Steelman, thanks but what configuration? Can't seem to find such a configuration in MPC-HC, MB Classic or MB Server? Never mind. I did find it. In MBC itself. Boy, I think it's very complex for newbees (which I am not) to know what to configre where. So many XML's and config pages.

Pirlo1966 22 Posted November 4, 2013 Author Share Posted November 4, 2013 Steelman, I tried those settings but IMO they are unrelated to this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelman1991 19 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 (edited) Shouldn't really be an opinion, either checking the boxes corrects the issue and shows the watched status correctly, or it doesn't. If it doesn't then yes its totally unrelated. EDIT - Sorry I may have totally missed your point - are you referring to items being marked as 'watched' or showing in 'watched' on the EHS - If so, you're right these may be totally unrelated.

Yes, I was refering to items being marked as watched or showing in watched on EHS. No problem. Thanks anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14921 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I'm at a total loss because I cannot reproduce the issue. Can anyone else...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelman1991 19 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 (edited) @ ebr - Nope Edited November 4, 2013 by steelman1991 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirlo1966 22 Posted November 4, 2013 Author Share Posted November 4, 2013 (edited) I have the same issue on all my htpc's. And with two different MB3 servers. So it looks I can reproduce it :-) Maybe a language issue? I have MPC-HC in duch language version. Edited November 4, 2013 by ehgeahrev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14921 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 yes, you need your mpc language set to english. mpc's api localizes the playstate values - playing, paused, stopped, etc. so unless Ebr plans to support all of the different values for every possible language, then you'll need to use english. Aha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37094 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I believe there is a newer mpc api endpoint that uses numbers for the values. But I don't recall what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14921 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I can't find any docs on their http interface. Do you know of any? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37094 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 No, I really wouldn't bother because you won't find any. If you really want to pursue it you're going to have to relentlessly dig through forums and code from other apps that use it. That's basically how it got as far as it is today.

Just the civilised languages Dutch and English will do Thanks for solving this issue. Changing MPC to English indeed solves the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
