I’ve often thought it would be really handy to be able to have an option to mute shows that come up as “On Deck” as there are some movies or shows that I didn’t really have a great interest in watching showing up as On Deck that I no longer care about.
It would be good to be able to click the Three Dots and say Mute from On Deck or Remove from On Deck or something like that so only the things I’m actually interested in show up in this area. Shows I actually want to watch can sometimes get missed… just sayin.
Thread reopened for discussion about whether it is a duplicate of
I say yes.
Because the main goal is the same: free OnDeck from shows you are longer interested in, so you only see content in OnDeck which is relevant to you.
How this is finally implemented and where the button for this is finally placed is IMHO not that important.
The previous comment describes an implementation of something where you can mute entire libraries to not show… ie Movies, Music or TV Shows. The major difference here is the ability to temporarily mute the show so it doesn’t show up within On Deck. With the option later on to UnMute it later down the track.
Currently, just in my OnDeck, there are 5 TV shows that I have watched YEARS ago when I was using KODI as my main driver and have been synced through the TrackTV channel which syncs both the’ programs watched’ cycles together.
As it stands, I am not actually interested in watching these programs. I do not want to delete them or marked them as watched because I’ve not watched them but may have watched a few of them. They are still coming down through SR, so they are still being added to the downloaded folders. This is where PLEX is picking them up and saying: “Hey, there’s a new ON DECK for you to watch”. Along with all the other ones that have come down as well that I am actually interested in watching. Therefore muddying up the entire ON DECK experience.
So the feature request is… having an option with the 3 dots on the On Deck section for the current On Deck show… to “MUTE” that entire series of TV shows. For example, Vikings comes down through SR. I don’t want to see any more Vikings in the On Deck list. However, I do want to be able to go into the TV Show’s library and select the next available one if I want to say watch it months down the track. If another one gets downloaded in between now and when I decide to watch it; it doesn’t go onto On Deck, but just into TV Shows / Vikings area. When I feel like I want to either binge watch or ‘can’t wait for the next episode to come down and really want to know when it’s here’ kind of thing; I can unmute the On Deck for the TV Series of Vikings so it will once again always show up on the top of my front screen., on deck
