This new feature makes it easier to keep track of what videos have already been watched by having them be stored in a subfolder called "Watched".
Details
This feature is in effect disabled by default, so it is only for those who want it.
In Settings->Configuration you can set the name of this Watched folder, you can set it to automatically move watched files to the watched subfolder (if it exists), and you can set Syncplay to automatically create a watched subfolder when needed.
This means you can just manually create watched subfolders for the folders where you want to use this feature and not do so for folders where you do not want to use this feature.
Because the directory to search for media includes subfolders it will still find the video to watch it even if it is in a subfolder.
Watched files show up with a grey background in the playlist, and you can manually to or from the watched folder by right-clicking the file in the playlist.
There is a notification when files are moved into the watched subfolder, and if the file is currently locked it will wait to move it until the next file is playing and/or the media player has closed.
