Is there an autoplay option like on Plex?
#1
On Plex you have the autoplay option which allows you to watch entire tv episodes without having to manually load the next, and I love this feature so much! Does XBMC have something similar to this? It's very useful for TV shows with lots of episodes/seasons. With this option on, it will automatically load up the next episode for you. I would love to see this feature in XBMC if it isn't already there. I know we have playlists, but it isn't the same. Having the option to autoplay a TV season directly in the menus would be very useful!

If you hit play on a season it will play the entire season.
Same for tvshow

Some skins have an option in settings to always autoplay next item.

Oh really? Awesome then! I primarily use Refocus and Alaska skin, since I use the Apple TV Remote which don't have enough buttons for features, how can I make this work?

vdrfan, where can I locate 'play from here'?

There's also a pull request here for general changes in this area - https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/1069 - although it seems to be stalled a bit.

And note my tiny pull request to fix the play from here functionality was merged a few days ago - https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/commit/a85c...eefd85320d - it was pretty useless in files view before this.


Addons I wrote &/or maintain:
OzWeather (Australian BOM weather) | Check Previous Episode | Playback Resumer | Unpause Jumpback | XSqueezeDisplay | (Legacy - XSqueeze & XZen)
Sorry, no help w/out a *full debug log*.

'Play from here' is found in the context menu.
When standing on an episode press 'c' on a regular keyboard (don't know layout of Apple remote).
But it is the same menu where you can queue or favorite an item or update the library.
