Suggestion For Joint User Account

[Gronnie 8]

My wife and I both love the program and are contributors. We also each like to watch some stuff on our own, but a lot of stuff together. It would be nice if there was a "joint" account that when logged into would show anything that is marked as watched on any of the owners accounts as watched, and anything that is watched while logged into it would be marked as watched on all the owners accounts. Otherwise when we watch things together, only things that were watched under whoever is logged in show as watched; and anything we watch only gets marked as watched under one of our user accounts

As far as I am aware the server already supports this. There is an API so that clients can allow users to be added to a session. See:

I don't think it has been integrated into the clients yet though.

It's a new feature for the coming server release. Clients will start rolling it out after that.

Awesome, can't wait.

 

The last update seems to have solved my MB Classic clients crashing when scrolling. Things are improving all the time!

MBC will be adding the capability to mark other users "Also Here" as soon as this feature rolls out on the server.
