Server Version: 1.40.0.7998 (via Docker) Greetings everyone, I’m reaching out for assistance as I’ve been grappling with an issue concerning the “Continue Watching” feature on Plex, which has become increasingly unreliable and erratic. Despite my appreciation for Plex, I find its content discovery…

I am still seeing this issue… So frustrating. :expressionless: I tried to t-shoot with someone from Plex but didn’t have much luck… Anyone from Plex looking into this still?

I’m still having this issue as well. One of my previously watched shows just started back up for Season 4 (The Boys). S04E01 was in Continue Watching, then I marked S04E01 as watched, and it was gone… I have E02 and E03 in the library, they just don’t show up in Continue Watching. The whole Cont…

Hi, Thanks for the information, I work on a tool that sync user watchstate, and this is effecting the users. To simply re-produce the issue do the following, Have a new show that unwatched at all, simply mark E01 as watched, the show won’t show up. In continue watching, from your replies i assume …

Yes, experiencing this myself. Is there a workaround!

I’m annoyed with it as well. I sometimes forget about shows that I manually mark as Played (that I watched elsewhere) because they don’t show up on the Home page. Especially for seasons that are split into parts. Part 2 is not a premiere episode. My tracking apps don’t update this way either, and I…

This is still an issue for me. Unfortunately. it seems getting any help from Plex on issues such as this seems impossible. :expressionless: :frowning:

This is a really annoying issue, at least there used to be a workaround for things to appear manually. Now there is no manual workaround… WHY CAN WE HAVE NO CONTROL OVER WHAT WE WANT TO CONTINUE WATCHING… ABSOLUTELY STUPID

Calling Plex Staff… Are we able to get some help here please? I’ve been trying to get someone to help me for a while now. This clearly looks like a bug but there is no way i can see to log and track a bug. I was told to come here but it is hard to get attn. help?!

@ChuckPa @Atomatth ANY news on this…?

@stevezau and anyone else, just wanting to make sure ya’ll saw that in the latest Beta (1.41.6.9606) that marking an unwatched show’s S01E01 (or any other combination of episode(s)) will now add that show into Continue Watching.
