Is there an easy way to change all recordings in a folder to "start over?" Over the past years I have watched all 156 recordings of Big Bang Theory. They are all in a single folder. I would like to reset them all so that they appear to be unwatched so that as I view the folder, I can easily see which programs are rewatched and which have not (green bar.) I tried to "select all" in the edit mode but there is no option for resetting them to "start over." Individually selecting them, then manually selecting "start over", then stopping the view gets very time comsuming especially as you get further down the list.
 
Considering how often BBT is shown on TBS everyday, just delete them all, set a timer on TBS, and you should have a fresh "unwatched" set in no time. They just keep showing them in episode order all the way through and then start over again.
 
Not aware of any DVR that does this. If someone knows of a DVR that has this feature, let us know.
 
I'm not so sure adding another "feature" is the way to accomplish this. The suggestion of simply putting watched ones in a "Watched" folder seems a great suggestion. In fact any shows you want to do this with can all be put into the same "Watched" folder. If there were too many different series then you could make a "Watched Seinfeld" folder, etc...
