Movie not showing in recently played

[crusher11 1101]

I have a UGOOS AM6B+ for MVC 3D and Dolby Vision FEL playback, but I hate the Kodi interface so I'm sticking with the Shield for all other uses. The way I'm handling it is through a "recently played movies" custom widget - I start playback on the Shield, stop it and switch over to the AM6B+, and the movie will be right there at the top of the list. No need to do any navigating via the Kodi interface. I even have the "stop playback and switch to the AM6B+" bit automated in Home Assistant.

Works fine with everything except Gravity. For some reason, that never shows up in my widget, whether I play it on the Shield or on the AM6B+.

The Emby web interface? I'm not aware of Emby having a recently played section.

You could sort a library by date played, or use table view to view date played.

Yes, it correctly appears.

the "recently played movies" just order the results by last play date and takes the top X of them, I dont know why a single movie would be treated differently.

It just happened again with Double Indemnity, and comparing the lists it also seems to have happened with The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.

There certainly seems to be no pattern as to what does or doesn't get on the list.

It appears that I have to have finished watching a film for it to appear on the list. If it's already on the list, merely starting it will move it to the top of the list, but if it's not already on the list it won't appear there until I finish it.

yeah I think it has always been like that.

you could probably create a completely custom widget with just the order by played.
