Don't mark upcoming episodes as watched

watashibeme opened this issue · comments

Describe the issue:
When clicking "mark season as watched" it marks upcoming episodes and TBAs too
Expected behaviour:
When an epsiode isn't available you shouldn't be able to mark it as watched because its not aired or its state isn't known
Suggestion:
TBAs or upcomings could be grayed out
Its prefered that they are disabled from altering their state(watched or unwatched)
When refreshing show data, don't fetch unaired episodes
Also its possible to add an option to hide unaired episodes and... A lot more
Why don't you do it yourself then mr-know-it-all??!
Thank you:)
I dont't have a computer I sold it quite some while ago which was a mistake :(
Extra details:
Android:AICP 15.0(Android 10)
Episodes version:0.13.6(latest-fdroid)

why, yes, thank you!

Hello, sorry to interrupt a nicely solved issue:
I have at least one broken show in my library, that is, there are no airdates for most or all episodes, even though they have been aired years ago. Re-adding those shows does not fix these issues and since they are very old by now i don't expect anyone to ever fix the datasets for them.

Is there any smart way to work around this issue short of marking each single episode by hand?
And is there a possibility to get Episodes to count such episodes in the progress bar either way?

I can think of a new feature that allows marking individual shows as broken, so that Episodes will ignore the existence of any airdates within the show. But i fear that this will disproportionately comicate the codebase and its also a new value to save.

Is the overall best way to fix this to just go and update the datasets on TheTVDB.com ?

Have you watched all or most of the show? I intentionally left the "Mark show as watched" feature the same as it was before so that you could always mark an entire show even if the dates were missing. If most of the show is watched then you can mark the whole thing and then uncheck a smaller number that are unwatched.

A "broken show" feature doesn't seem quite right to me, but I'd have to think on what a better alternative is otherwise. If the data is available and could be added to TVDB/TMDB, that's always going to be the best option.

Thanks a lot for your response. That helps and is good enough for my case.
