Playback

The Progress tab shows unfinished playback read live from connected players and playback providers.

Summary

The cards at the top show:

  • Unfinished — unfinished playback found across your players.

  • Almost done — items at 90 percent or more.

  • Stale — items paused for more than 30 days.

  • Providers — how many readable providers responded.

Unlike synchronized Profile tabs, Progress refreshes playback data directly from configured readable providers.

If one provider fails or times out, CrossWatch still shows available results. Provider issues appear separately.

Find and filter progress

You can filter by:

  • Search

  • Media type

  • Provider

  • Progress — Any progress, Under 25 percent, 25 to 50 percent, 50 to 75 percent, Over 75 percent, or Almost done.

  • Paused time — Any time, Today, Last 7 days, Last 30 days, or Older than 30 days.

You can sort by:

  • Recently paused

  • Most watched

  • Least watched

  • Shortest remaining

  • Highest rated

  • Title, A to Z

  • Provider

  • Views

Progress supports:

  • Timeline — grouped by paused date when sorting by Recently paused.

  • Grid

  • List

Choose 24, 48, or 96 items per page.

When matching playback exists on multiple providers, CrossWatch can show records together. Each record retains its provider information.

Playback actions

Available actions depend on the provider record's capabilities. They can include:

  • Edit progress

  • Mark as watched

  • Remove progress

The maximum editable progress value is provider-specific. CrossWatch keeps normal edits below the provider completion boundary. Use Mark as watched to complete an item.

When an action targets multiple providers, CrossWatch reports completed, failed, and unsupported operations separately.

Bulk actions

With write permission, select multiple progress items and run supported playback actions in bulk.

You can select individual items, the visible page, or all matching results.

Refresh and provider settings

Select Refresh to query included playback providers again.

Administrators can open Providers to choose readable provider profiles for Progress. They can also set the slow provider timeout.

The default timeout is 20 seconds. The setting accepts values from 3 through 60 seconds.

Managed users can use playback actions only with assigned write access. Provider configuration remains an administrator function.

Use Progress for current unfinished playback across connected players.

This page shows live playback state. History shows watched activity.

Progress is available at /profile#playback.

Current endpoints include:

Provider settings include only configured profiles that support readable playback progress.
