    I don't suppose it's possible to enable onlinevideos to retrieve the watched status of videos in a users youtube account like when using the website? Or is that dream world stuff? :)

    Thanks

    The API does not offer this functionality. I can also not set a video as watched on youtube when you watched it with OV.

    Yeah just dawned on me you would need to be bi-directional to keep youtube up to date. Any value in marking videos watched in onlinevideos only?

    I just find when I am watching my subscriptions larger playlists, and come back a day or two later to maybe watch another, I can never remember which episode I am up to.

    Haven't implemented this. The problem was/is identifying videos is not always as easy as you think, because
    a) the url to a video changes over time
    b) different urls point to the same video
    In Youtube case this would be possible I guess, but Onlinevideos is about combining many websites ;)

    @CyberSimian Sorry, I missed your last post. I ended up doing a clean install on the client and all is well now. It still doesn't let me go back in time when I change channels but it does continue operating from that point on. I'm ok with that. Thanks for your help! EDIT: I now downgraded the server (as I did with the client above)...

    I do not know why this xml was in my theme folders, it must have sneaked in some time ago (years?). I simply removed the file. The Latest Media Handler plugin seems to be working as expected. I've had no lock-ups.
