Hi,

i'd like to ask you how you use watched by with the parent profiles.
I marked the child Profiles with the watch date and teh language in the notes. But when i filter m collection with not seen by me, i get all the box set parent profiles.
How do you handle this issue?

Thanks for your help.

Best Regards
Stardancer

Personally, I created a tag called "Group" that I apply to any parent profile and then filter out those before I do a "Not Seen" filter.

I watch the box-set childs, and when all are watched I simply mark the parent "watched - use purchase date"

I watch the childs and mark them watched, when I watch the last child, I give the parent profile the same watchdate as the last child.

This is how I do it as well.

I mark the parent profile as watched as soon as they've been entered into the Profiler database.

I've marked all my box sets as watched to a date before I bought I started to buy DVDs: 01/01/2000. This way I can filter them out when I do statistics and they don't appear in my watched banner.

I do just the reverse. When I watch the first disc in the profile, I mark the parent with the same date.
