I used to use Netflix and loved the 'Play Next Episode' feature.
I have figured out how to get a button there by adding lines to the 'EpisodePrePlay.xml' file.
But have no idea really where to start to get it to play the next episode when you click the button.
Hopefully some else will have an idea.
I don’t see the point of an extra button when you have a list of episodes at the bottom of the screen to choose from?

True, its probably a height of laziness but It would be much simpler with a next episode rather than having to scroll through the episodes (especially if you are on episode 22)

I agree, not needed. "On Deck" will have the next episode highlighted anyways.
Or start your Episode with PLAY instead with SELECT/PrePlayScreen. Then you should get them all, right?

although... ibaa probably have the code line in his head so just type it out to him.. if i could i would :P
Must be just me, but I really like going to the pre-play screen. I really don’t like the bar along the bottom with all the episodes. Maybe a post-play page could be created, which shows you the next episode and also with easy access to the rating aswell.
Trouble is, the PrePlay Screen doesn't really know about the "next" epsiode... thus I don't think it's that easy to add the link into PMS database.
Was looking through the files last night and it doesn’t look that easy. Just loved how easy it is to binge watch TV series on Netflix
What would be nice is if you are watching an episode, and there is a new one in that series that is not "Watched" yet, it will do like Netflix, and show a "Playing next : Episode Number - Name - with a countdown (10...9...8... until "0") and at the countdown end, it start the next episode. Also, they usually have a "play now" button in that bottom menu that overlay on top of the finishing episode ...
Probably asking too much :)

I personally don't want the count down.... but the post-play screen the same as Netflix without the countdown would be awesome :D :D :D :D

Their could be an otion to set Auto-Play Countdown = True or False :)
Ok, now, who can do it ? :O

I wish I could do it, looked at it don't know where to start lol.
I'd love to have the Next episode button - for series with lots of episodes, the pre play screen screen bottom row often gets confused and requires to scroll to the right multiple times to get back to correct next episode.
To be honest i'd love a post play screen similar to netflix, but have found an easier way to watch one series continually.
If you goto "Unwatched" - TV Programme u want - Season you want - then press play on the first episode. It will go straight to playing the next episode when that one finishes.
