That’s actually a great idea.
I do really like the concept of the Universal Watchlist. But I find myself not wanting to use it much. And for me, the main reason I don’t really want to use it is this:
(Quote from a post I made in another thread)
I would like to give some feedback about the Universal Watchlist.
I think the general idea behind the watchlist is great, but when I add content that’s also present in my local libraries, the fact that it doesn’t respect the carefully curated posters/backgrounds/metadata of these items is very jarring.
Right now, each time there’s an item added to the watchlist it becomes a representation of what’s on https://watch.plex.tv . I think it would be much better if after detecting that a particular item is also present in a local library it would respect how this local item is displayed.
Specifically, I’m talking about matching:
Poster
Background
Title
Studio
Summary
Directors
Writers
Genre
I find that I would use the watchlist a lot more if the items in there would be displayed the same way they are in my local libraries. Because right now, the visual clash that happens with the items I add to the watchlist doesn’t really make me want to use it much.
Does it make sense?
Would it be appropriate to create a feature request about that?
