Title: Workaround for Mark As Unwatched?
Post by: ivb on November 29, 2013, 08:14:21 pm
There's the other thread for how to mark items as Watched using a workaround. (I opted to just have SageTV up on my TV, and manually "watched" but clicked into the last 10 seconds of every program, so no workaround needed there).

But, my wife & I have a handful of TV shows that we both watch. I play soccer 3 nights/week, so sometimes she'll opt to watch those shows without me. But in SageTV, she can easily reset the Watched flag so I know there's something waiting.

Has anyone come up with any WAF-accepted mechanism to do that in TheaterView?  I thought about creating an expression field, but I don't think there's a way in Theater View to issue a command to clear that field (or set to something else).

Not really.  There is a pretty simple way to do it from Standard View, but any kind of WAF-friendly tagging in Theater View is too much, I think.

How would you do it from standard view if you were to do it?  Just manually start keying and have it auto-populate?

I'm trying to figure out what MCWS.SetInfo does, could i use that triggered via an IR keypad to set it? That might work as a hack.
