How do I make new episodes show as "Continue Watching" on new 2nd server?

Hi,

I have added a new server and am migrating media to it from my original server.
Both servers are active and visible on my account but when a new episode is added on the new server (not adding anything new to the old server) it does not show in my “Continue Watching” section?

Is this possible to resolve?

Many thanks

If you have this enabled: https://support.plex.tv/articles/sync-watch-state-and-ratings/ then you have already the most important part done. Just make sure that both servers are running for several hours with available internet connectivity.

However, this will only transfer the watched state of each episode.
To populate the Continue Watching hub, you may have to go into your tv show library and filter for “Show last played” “within the last” “3 weeks” AND “Unplayed episodes” = “true”.
Then please the first upcoming episode of each show manually from this list.
As soon as you did that, your CW hub should populate.

Thank you for your reply! I can confirm the watch state and ratings are enabled but I cannot find the “showed last played” options? I have checked my TV Show library and general library options?

You can find these rules in the Advanced Filters

Ah, thank you,

I misunderstood, I see I would have to do this manually for each show and for each user! that is way to much work :smiley: I was hoping that plex would automagically work out that the same user and same show was just viewing on a different server.

Have you noticed that the “watched” state has already been synced from the old server?

Hi, yes, the watched state is synced but the next episodes are not being displayed in the “Continue Watching” section
