ENHANCEMENT/SUGGESTION Enhance episode counter (i.e. [total episodes remaining]/[total episodes])

[ldexterldesign 10]

Hi all,

 

Hope you're well

 

Thanks for software

 

I use the "Next up" (NU) feature/section to balance my consumption habits across all the series I have - variety's the spice of life, right?

 

However, there's one drawback - new series' first episodes don't appear in NU

 

As a result new series are staying unwatched unless I navigate into the library folder and suffer the time consuming task of pruning unwatched series / first episodes

 

I don't necessarily agree with how NU currently works but I understand the logic[0] and I would prefer NU *did not* include first episodes than have to bother with marking a bunch of new series with a forget feature[1]

 

If you, too, have this first episode niggle then hopefully this thread generates some discussion or even better a solution

 

In the meantime may I suggest a simple enhancement to the episode counter

 

Before:

 

x

 

After:

 

x/y

 

x = total episodes remaining / to watch

y = total episodes

 

If anyone else reading this agrees please up-vote or reply "+1"

 

Let me know if you have any issues - happy to help

 

Hope this is clear/useful and to hear back

 

Cheers

I would like to see this as well. 

"Next" is usually taken to mean something that "comes after" but if you never watched the 1st episode there really is no "next".
