Is there a way to have the watch/unwatch status synced between shared servers? Sometimes I check friends servers for movies I haven’t seen and I have to go through ones I have and it says I haven’t seen them. It would be nice to sync that info. Don’t need sync state but that would be nice also.

It wouldn’t be easy to make this work for series that weren’t matched with TVDB, but I think it could work for those that are matched without too much trouble.
