New way to display a "seen" item?

Hi, could you confirm that with the latest update of the iOS for Apple TV player app you inversed the way we know that an item have been marked as seen ?

Before the update : a yellow triangle in the upper right corner was there to tells us : you still have to see this item
After the update : a yellow horizontal line at the bottom is here to tells us : you have seen this item.

I love plex, and design change could be a could thing, but here the notion of the yellow thingy is completely swapped. This is very confusing and maybe not a good move.

I have just noticed that the home screen did not received this update.

Here is what I am speaking about :

This is my home screen, you can see that the Rick and Morty episode is not marked as seen (presence of the yellow triangle)

Here is the season screen, the role is swapped, the yellow bar is not there on this episode

Ahh, Rick and Morty, I see, the usual series.
But you still see both, don’t you? It is only when scroll through the seasons that they show the progress bar; if you were to only watch it half way through, the yellow bar would be half as long. The yellow triangle is only shown if you didn’t watch it at all.

I could understand if it is indeed a progress bar, I did not check to see if it will do that as in general I don’t stop midway.

In the Apple TV app un the season view the triangle is not there anymore.

So the fact that the triangle have disappeared in the season view is troubling, as it is not consistent with the home screen.

Here my home screen on iOS (iPhone) :

The season view in grid mode :

And the season view in list mode :

The « not seen » information is consistent.
