Missing episode toggle per series

[computerprep 148]

I have always wanted to display my missing episodes. That's just me. I like to know when something is missing instead of just reading between the lines, but to each his own. And until lately, it's been great. Now I find myself recording Jeopardy! episodes, and there are simply SO MANY missing episodes, that it's overwhelming if someone wants to navigate to a previous year where I may not have very many episodes. I think the global setting is great and don't want to change anything there. One of two suggestions would help me hide missing episodes on a per-show basis.

 

1 would be to have filtering capabilities when viewing a season of a particular show. Then we could hide missing episodes. But the "missing episode" filter is missing, which has its own threads, so I won't go into that here.

 

2 would be to have a few new checkboxes in the series metadata. Down below the locking checkboxes. First option is the default: to obey the global settings. Second option is to hide missing episodes. Third option is to display missing episodes. 2nd and 3rd options overwrite global settings for that particular series.

 

I envision this feature being helpful to many users who do care to know when episodes are missing, but may only care about the shows they themselves actually follow.
