How to save episodes and get back to watching¶
What this is for¶
The watch plan stores named episodes or groups of episodes with duration and a date. The list separates items with no date, items scheduled for the future and items considered watched.
How to get there¶
Pick Leisure → Series (/series).
Step by step¶
- Pick New Series, enter Title, set Status and optional dates. Save with Add series.
- Open the series and in Watch plan enter Episode (e.g. S1 E1-3).
- Set the episode duration, optionally Date (optional), and pick Add.
- To get back to watching, open this list and find an item with no date or a future date. You write the season and episode number yourself in the name.
- After watching, use the Mark as watched icon: the episode's date changes to today.
- Use the Edit episode icon to fix the name, duration or date and pick Save. Changing the status of the whole series is available through Edit.

Common mistakes / pitfalls¶
- Progress is the share of episodes dated today or earlier, not the share of completed planner tasks. It can grow as a scheduled date arrives.
- The UI has no button to automatically resume from the last episode and no separate season model. The episode list is for manually picking what to watch next.
- The Finished date cannot precede Started; the save does not let you clear existing dates of the whole series.
- The Watched section on the series list may be collapsed; expand it to see the titles.
- The episode's copy in the planner has its own state; the limits are described in planning in the library.
