Add "Remove from Collection" to the three-dot menu on a collection in the "Included In" section

[crusher11 1334]

On a movie or episode's item details screen, if it's in one or more collections there's an "Included In" section which lists the collection(s) that item is, well, included in.

It would be nice to have "Remove from Collection" as an option on the three-dot menu of these collections, to enable quickly removing an item from multiple collections, or quickly removing an item from a collection if the error is spotted on the item details screen.

Hi, yes this makes sense. We can add this. Thanks for the feedback.

@GrimReaperSorry for posting in a different topic than this one but I did a search for "Remove from Collection" and this topic wasn't in the first 2 pages of results but the other one is. Searching for exactly what you are looking for isn't the easiest these days here. I am not trying to be a dick, just letting you know.

No worries, it's actually my bad that I didn't caught duplicate topic sooner. Cheers.

Bumping this to add that the same should be true for removing from a playlist. With the new home screen features, we can effectively emulate the Watchlish feature available on most streaming services, but we'd have to navigate to the list in order to remove things after watching them rather than being able to do so directly from the item details screen.

Set the section to only unwatched and this will take care of itself.

However, this is still a valid request.

Not if I have something on my watchlist because I want to re-watch it.

Have you checked again to see if it's there?

It is there in my test in 4.10.0.6

[crusher11 1334]

It's there for collections (in which case this should have been marked as completed), but it's not there for playlists.

True but that is not the same request.

[crusher11 1334]

But that's the whole reason I bumped this thread:

In addition for this also applying to playlists, it should also be possible to remove an item from a playlist on the home screen if that playlist is used as a home screen section.

Very keen for this to be added. I have a Watchlist at the top of my home screen, but removing items from it once I've watched them is currently a chore.

[crusher11 1334]

Not sure what to make of @Lukethanking that comment just now...

Why not just add a playstate filter to the home screen section?

Because it's a list of things I want to watch in the near future, irrespective of whether I've previously watched them or not. If I watched a movie ten years ago and decide now that I'd like to go back to it soon, I can add it to my watchlist and have it appear.

Wouldn't also marking it "unwatched" at the time you add it to that list take care of this - and then everything would work automatically without you having to manually remove it?

I mean, if I didn't want my watched/unwatched data to be accurate, I guess, although you'd also eventually end up with the playlist containing basically every movie on the server and I'd instead have to change its watch status to get it to appear on the list, and the list would no longer be in the correct order.

Or, like every other service that offers a watchlist function, you could provide an easy way to remove things from said list.

We don't actually have a "watchlist" function.  You are just finding a way to create one with the features we do have and I'm just offering suggestions for how you may be able to make it work better for you.  Take them or leave them.

Because nothing would ever actually be removed from the playlist, merely hidden on the home screen.
