    I have my series in dedicated folders on my harddrive, but everytime I've watched an episode, I tend to delete it for space reasons. I would like to see only the folders/shows that actually contain episodes. I would like to see both watched and unwatched episodes. Kinda like using the video browser, but all the empty folders are "hidden". I know that somehow it's possible, because when I used the .xml-file that belonged to my skin of choice, Spinsafe Revolve, I got a "label missing" at the bottom of the page, but then I put the .xml-files from the My TVSeries in the skin folder, and now everything looks fine, but I just can't find that viewing mode anymore.

    Thanks for a great plugin!

    +1 on this.

    If no video files are in the Series, don't show it. This is nice, because I tend to delete the series, to get rid of it. but then when the series gets added again, i have to reset up the series in the config every time (banner, season image). this way, all our configs will stay the same :)

    Hmm, this should work:
    - you need to make sure you allow it to clear local references on removed files (config option)
    - in MP enable the option to only show episodes with a local file present (OSD Menu)

    Then after the next scan (restart MP or force a local scan) it should auto hide all series/seasons without anything in them, please confirm wether this is working or not.

    [Unchecked] Don't clear local reference for missing local files on scan
    [checked] in MP enable the option to only show episodes with a local file present

    This is almost it. But still, all episodes that are marked as 'watched' are still hidden. If you start watching an episode but stop halfway through, it disappears from view. Not optimal, but better.

    Only if you are in "unwatched" view though, correct?

    Yep. But if I go into "Show all", I will also see the "empty" folders.
