Question  Can I prevent specific items from being marked "watched"? Post: #1
Is there a way to set specific movies, TV episodes, or folders as "never mark watched"?

There are a number of childrens' programs that my son watches over-and-over, and it's a pain to have to unhide watched then re-mark unwatched for each item after every viewing.

Confused

All I can find in the documentation online is a global setting for setting an item "watched" at a specific playback interval (percentage of total).

PS - I'm running XBMC 9.04 T3CH on Xbox.

I solve this problem by launching kids shows from file view.
You don't really need the plot for something you've seen 5000 times do you?
