See what episodes/movies are already watched about kodiwebportal HOT 10 CLOSED

Ok, so, I have implemented the watched status for movies (only) for the moment ; without the possibility to change the watched status directly in the Kodi DB (always for the moment ;)).

I display over each poster of movie, in the top-left corner one of these icons:

For movies with playCount > 0 (watched entirely at least one time).

For movies started to watch but not finished (playCount == NULL and lastPlayed == some date).

For movies totally unwatched (playCount == NULL and laspPlayed == NULL).

I'll do the same thing for tvshows and keep you informed,

Sincerely,

Hello all,

Ok, so I have implemented the watched / unwatched status for all media (movies, tvshows, seasons and episodes).

Finally, only two status were implemented (watched / unwatched), the started status isn't interesting enough. So the implementation is based only on the playCount attribute.

For the moment, you can just see what is the status of a media : you can't change the status through KodiWebPortal (watched to unwatched and unwatched to watched). This additionnal feature will be added soon.

I have made several improvement of KodiWebPortal via several commit. The latest version is the 1.1.0 (commit d9c3593).

Thank you for your feature request and so the KodiWebPortal improvment !

Keep me informed if this feature works for you.

Have a nice day,

Hi @yanncam ,

Thanks for the quick work, that way I can delete my fork again.

The feature works fine for me.

Hello,

Thanks for your feedback :) !

As describe in the README of the project (in the footer), yes, it's in the roadmap to add a "star" or a "tick" for each movies/tvshows to know if you have already watched it.

But as KodiWebPortal can be multi-user (through LDAP authentication as example), I need to store in a third-party table in database the status "seen" or "not seen" for each user.

Currently, KodiWebPortal doesn't implement his how database / tables, but it will be added for the future.

For the moment, I can propose to you to add a simple new configuration variable like $showWatchedStatus=true or false in the config.php file and display for all users the status watched/unwatched based on the Kodi's database attribute.

I keep you in touch when this update will be done ;) !

Multiple user watch status is difficult.
When I set up the database according to this guide.
https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=196821&pid=2515045#pid2515045
and other table names, it would not work anymore.

Hello @boing86,

Yes, I agree with you.
I think I will cheat in KodiWebPortal (in the future) with this kind of behaviour:

• When the owner user log into KodiWebPortal (same user as the main profile in Kodi), he can see the watched status (a star or a tick) in the corner of each movies / tvshows.
• When another user (my wife as example) log into KodiWebPortal, she can see if she has already get a movie or tvshow by the another icon (but it's based on download / not downloaded yet status when she is at the hotel as example).
• Finaly, it's possible to add a little button on each movie / tvshow for the user to clic and pass a specific movie / tvshow as watched or unwatched (these status will be stored in third database specific for KodiWebPortal).

Do you have any others ideas / suggestions for future evolutions?

Sincerely and thanks for your comment,

from kodiwebportal.

Hi,

Watch status for single user which has to have the same name as the main profile in kodi is totally fine by me!

I would wish for if I pass a movie / tvshow as watched it would update the actual kodi database.

When I'm on a business trip I can watch my tvshows locally and mark them as watched in kodi web portal, and when at home I can simply continue watchin in kodi, without having the need to look into kodi web portal where I have left off.

I don't know for sure, but incrementing the playCount by 1 should already do the trick?

Thanks for considering my ideas!

Hello @thorus90,

From Kodi database, I have seen two things:

• playCount column has a value when you have seen at least one time a media (else NULL value). This integer value is incremented for each full-watched movie.
• lastPlayed column contains a timestamp indicating the last played date of the current movie.

So, you can have:

• playCount == NULL and laspPlayed == NULL : totally new media unwatched
• playCount == NULL and laspPlayed == some date : media watching started but unfinished (boring movie?)
• playCount == N (with N > 0) and laspPlayed == some date : media watch at least 1 time

I have started to implement this behaviour with 3 icons:

• Watched
• Started
• Unwatched

Then I'll add a button (or a click event on this icon) to change the state from KodiWebPortal in Kodi DB between watched or unwatched value.

There are several tests to do on my side:

• Can I just set the playCount to NULL or 0 and set lastPlayed to NULL to change the status of a movie to unwatched ?
• Can I just set the playCount to 1 and lastPlayed to the current date to change the status of a movie to watched ?

I keep you in touch when I will commit these evolutions,

Sincerely,

from kodiwebportal.

Perfect :) !

I closed this issue.

Thank you !

Hello,

I've integrated new button for each movies/tvshow-episodes to change on-the-fly the watched / unwatched status from KodiWebPortal in the Kodi's database directly (v1.2.0 commit 8b7c10e).

Please keep me informed if you encounter any issue.

Sincerely,

from kodiwebportal.
