Gen 4 doesn't have "Mark Watched" and "Mark Unwatched"?

The legacy Tablo’s gave us the option to mark a recording as “Watched” or “Unwatched”. I don’t see that feature on the Gen 4 - Am I missing it somewhere ?

On my legacy Tablo’s I would mark episodes as “UnWatched” after viewing all the episodes in a series, in the event that I wanted to start watching the series over again from the beginning.

When I had my legacy Tablo I requested (several times) for the ability to mark every episode of a series as “Unwatched” with a single button click, but of course that never happened. Ideally, I would like that option, but as a bare minimum I should have the option to mark individual episodes as “Unwatched”, or preferably both options.

If you have a series you want to rewatch you can go through and watch a couple of seconds of each episode. This erases the blue progress bars. I’m not sure if this would accomplish what you want but it’s what I do.

As you say it would also be great to be able to mark everything in a series as unwatched.

Thanks for that tip, it does work - even if it’s a little bit of a clunky way of doing things.

It used to have that feature but they took it away for some unknown reason. I think it would be nice if you could “mark” or “unmark” as “watched” by season or even by all episodes.

There is a feature that you can use if you’re scheduling a series. There’s an option to preserve any episode that you record before or after watching it so that you can watch it again. I think there’s also an option for the series to preserve the series, but I haven’t tried that. This is as of January 2025
