The Resume playback should remember the exact play time always

I think the Resume button could do a better job remembering where I left off.

Right now in every episode of a TV Show it marks it as Watched even if I have 2:30 minutes left, so when I resume it starts from the beginning, and I have to seek forward all the way almost to the end.

I’m not sure if this is a runtime thing or a watched percentage thing.

Maybe the “Watched” status should be adjusted to be closer to the end of the episode, or it should detect when the Credits actually start, or just remember my exact position always.

It’s a fixed percentage. It defaults to 90%, but as of version 1.30.1.6562 you can adjust it via Settings > Library > Video played threshold. Or, if you have a Plex Pass and credits detection enabled, you can use those to determine when something is marked as played.
