Recently Viewed / Listened to Addin

Post by tip2toe » Fri Oct 11, 2013 8:22 pm

Hi all

Is there a plug in for Media Centre that will allow me to see the last movie watched / last album listened to?

Quite often I will watch part of a movie and then watch the rest on another day. I have though over 800 movies (ripped dvd's) and it can be a pain having to scroll through the movies to find the last one watched. I also thought it would be helpful to use this so I could see what my 10 year old had been watching / listening to.

Thanks


Craig

Recorded TV HD has a recently watched category.

Hi Barnabas. It's not much the recorded TV that's really an issue. but movies that I have been watching from ripped dvd's and stored on the hard disk. the Recorded tv hd looks like a good product. just need one now for movies!

thanks

The MyMovies addin can tell you if you watched/partially watched a movie via an icon. I don't believe it provides a recently watched status though.

Something like tip2toe suggested would appeal to me to. I use MyMovies, and while the icon is helpful, you still have to scroll through them all to see what was watched recently. When trying to find a recently watched movie my 3 year old is trying to describe - going through several hundred looking for the icon can be tedious. lol

There are some settings in Recorded TV HD for locally-stored media (other than recorded TV shows), but I've never used them. I'll try to remember to look into that.

Hi Guys

Has anybody had any luck with this plugin that I am sure that 99% of Media Centre users would appreciate and use something like it.

thanks

Craig
