Hello and welcome
Depends on many factors, for example
i am sure i missed more exceptions.
Webhooks do trigger another event to update the state independent of export, however it does require the target to be export enabled to do so. export.enabled is the flag that allow us to update external state be it vis export command or via events. |

I am going to need you to do the following: db:list --id 27267 -o json
db:list --id 43097 -o jsonthen we need the raw data from the backends themselves you could execute these commands from once i have this info we probably could start tracking the issue you are facing |

Meanwhile, the hacker who set all this up is walking to his jet prepared to go to Kaiba land as well. Back at the duel, Yami Yugi draws the card he gave to Rick earlier, Heart of the Underdog. Using it, he is able to bring out the power of Rick's dragon deck and win the duel, causing the doors to open again. At about that time, Kaiba arrives and tells them where to register for the KC Grand Championship. That night, the gang goes to a hotel reception where all the other contestants are. There, they meet Leon again, and a duelist who seems to have a crush on Yugi named Vivian Wong. Also, the hacker arrives and introduces him to Kaiba as Zigfried Lloyd. Finally, all the contestants arrive and Roland announces their names to the crowd. Then he explains that whoever emerges as the winner of the tournament will gain the right to duel Yugi Muto for the title of the world's best duelist."

Can you comment on the mismatch in the image ? This is from marking as played, then once synced, marking as unplayed (this was the second set of json provided) |

I am going to need complete trace to determine why the dispatcher behaved like this. so do the following Mark a movie as watched. wait for it 2-3mins to propagate. then dump the item history like you did i.e then marked it unplayed as you did wait for another 2-3mins for the events to propagate. also dump the history again. Also provide
From when the item marked as played to the end. Then we can hopefully see why the unplayed event is ignored. |

@arabcoders is there a way to programmatically find these types of mismatches ? Clearly something that would be good to resolve across all backends I found the ability in the UI to report on potential incorrect per backend, but nothing across backends As you saw, the match in the metadata providers is correct for some of them, but not all, and clearly in this case the one that matters was mismatched |

This was the reason we had Episode GUIDs disabled, it's usually incorrect and we used to rely on rGUIDs which are more accurate. Someone was throwing fit to have it enabled by default. Sadly without having source of truth it's impossible to tell which backend is reporting the correct data, and you need 3+ backends to make a judgement. I will probably re-introduce the ability to turn off episode GUIDs. this will require a hard reset to watchstate tho you would have to delete current data and re-import. |
