An option to show only UNWATCHED content in the NEW index.

[Omertron]

Original issue 1839 created by Omertron on 2011-03-01T16:13:34.000Z:

Currently, the NEW indexes still show both watched and unwatched content. It makes sense that the NEW indexes should only have UNWATCHED content.

This feature should be "hardcoded", or it can be put in as an option. Maybe mjb.new.HideWatched=true?

My argument for hardcoding it is as follows: Once NEW content has been watched, it is technically no longer NEW. If they want to keep it in the NEW index, they just simply do nothing and wait for it to fall off via mjb.newdays. The NMT/YAMJ has no way to determine if content has been watched or not (at least not accessible by normal means). So if the user proactively marks a movie watched (by creating a file with the .watched extension), the user should understand that this will effectively also remove it from the NEW index.

As per Omertron's suggestion, we can also have Other_Watched and Other_Unwatched indexes.

This should be easy to do.

I agree that new content should only have "unwatched", so I don't think a parameter is needed for this one.
