So, I was thinking it would be useful if freevo could track which items you have viewed, and possibly give you a list of "unviewed" items in a separate (sub)menu for easy access.

Does such a plugin exist? Would it be tricky to make one if it doesn't? Any other thoughts?
It does. Check out the recordings manager plugin. freevo plugins -l will help.

Nice, but from what I understand, it's linked up to the TV plugins, which I'm not using (Freevo isn't doing the recording of episodes).

I think in "freevo terms", all my episodes are "videos", organised in a folder structure like this (with series being in VIDEO_ITEMS):

series/
------>Bones/
------------>Season 1/
--------------------->Bones.S01E*.avi
------------>Season 2/
--------------------->Bones.S02E*.avi
------>Burn Notice/
------------------>Season 1/
--------------------------->Burn_Notice.S01E*.avi
------------------>Season 2/
--------------------------->Burn_Notice.S02E*.avi
etc...



From the little documentation I get when looking at $ freevo plugins -i tv.recordings_manager, I can't tell if it's possible to use it with my setup?
Good question. I'm not sure that it's actually linked into the recording server at all. It's possible if you just specify your TV_RECORD_DIR (from memory, check that) to point to the same dir as your VIDEO_ITEMS it would work. If this works it would be nice to patch the plugin to allow it to be a generic video plugin (to be able to specify multiple directories for it to apply to in local_conf.py).
Which I guess raises the question of documentation on the various plugins.. is the info given by freevo plugins -i <pluginname> all you have, or does the plugins have some extra documentation somewhere?

The wiki may (or may not) have more info. Patches are welcome, so are updates to the wiki :)
