atomicmoon 150 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 I would like to request a feature to allow TV episodes/series to have their watch status reset in Emby, without removing it from watch history. Example: I finish watching TV Series X. A couple months later I would like to watch it again, and have it populate in my "Next Up" section, without removing it from my watch history. Example with Trakt functionality: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/77281-trakt-reset-playstate-sync-to-emby/ Possibly have Emby keep a running tally of how many times a user has watched an episode/season/series. Thank you for your consideration in this feature request! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14939 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Hi. What, exactly, do you mean by not removing it from your watched history? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vdatanet 1549 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 If you start watching again a watched show, the only way it appears in "Next Up" is to mark the show as unwatched, since "Next Up" shows the next unwatched episode. Maybe he means being able to rewatch a show again without marking it as unwatched and appearing in Next Up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vdatanet 1549 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 What do you do when you want to watch a TV Show again and follow your progress on "Next Up"? I set the TV Show as unwatched, is there a better way? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atomicmoon 150 Posted September 7, 2019 Author Share Posted September 7, 2019 Op probably needs to do homework before requesting features already available. I want to be able to select rewatch on a series/movie on trakt's website, and have Emby reset my watch status on same series/movie on my server via sync. A display of how many times a user watched a season could be useful as well Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vdatanet 1549 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 (edited) Op probably needs to do homework before requesting features already available. I want to be able to select rewatch on a series/movie on trakt's website, and have Emby reset my watch status on same series/movie on my server via sync. A display of how many times a user watched a season could be useful as well Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk This is a Trakt plugin issue: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/76924-trakt-question-clear-watch-status/ ... If I mark a watched movie in Emby as unwatched in Trakt, it's not marked as unwatched in Emby. It only fails here .. We are still waiting for an answer. In a competitor product, the playback history is saved instead of the date of the last playback (if you watch something 3 times, you have 3 records), but if you want to watch a TV show again and keep it “On Deck”, you also have to set it as unwatched and you lose all the playback history. I think it is complex to do in another way. Edited September 7, 2019 by vdatanet 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiGo 103 Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 I would like to request this too. Would be great to be able to re-watch series and it appears on 'Next Up' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marauder 17 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 I’d love something like this. If I watch a show that I’ve already watched having the next episode show up in my up next would be great without having to mark the show as Unwatched as that messes up my watched data.

carpenter2003 2 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I know this is an old thread/topic, but I too would like some way to do this. I have numerous series that I will on occasion decide to binge watch again. In order to track my progress in "Up Next" you have to set the entire series to "Unwatched" which also seems to removes all previous "Played Date" information. I'm usually looking for this information when my wife starts complaining "You are watching that again!" and I need supporting evidence that it's been 2 years since I watched it last. It would be nice if there was a separate function to "rewatch" a series or movie. Or at the least retain any "Played Date" information in the logs/tracking information even when marking a show as unwatched. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
