[NEW FEATURE] allow the users to archive movies and series

[Nilcouv]

User story :

• As a long time user of stremio, I would like to be able to archive my movies and series, in order to clean up my library (watchlist), while keeping the history of what I have watched (archive).

User Problems :

• I've got difficulties to find the movies and series that I put in my library, because it is too full
• I want to keep track of what I have watched
• Following too many series and movies, don't show them all in the calendar

Suggestions :

• Add a tab "archive"
• Add a button "archive" in
  • The film's presentation sheet, to the right of the "add/remove from the library" button
  • The contextual menu that opens when you right-click on the movie card.
• By default, automatically transfer watched movies and series to the archive tab
• Add options in the parameters to modify the behavior of the app e.g : from which percentage a film/series is transferred to the archive.
• Archive a serie “in progress” remove it from the calendar

Not mentioning that having too many series makes some of them not displayed in the calendar, cuz there is a limit.

I didn't think about this case, but I agree. It's a good idea. I add it in the ticket

[edwyn-amador]

Yes, please implement this!

Let's go further with folders then !

I can see a lot of good reason to make folders that you can hide or not from your list :

• Archive
• Follow up but next season is planned for next year
• TV Show is cool but no subs in my language (or very messy) - I keep it somewhere for further reference
• Old content with no source enough - I will have to grab the MagnetLink later
• Genre (western, scifi,...)
• To watch only with my GF/BF or s/he kills me
• The kids list
• The Ultimate Righteous Chronology of all StarWars Episodes (works also with The Avengers)
• ...

I'm barely joking... I could have done most of those lists/folders if the feature would exist, but I just don't have kids.

This is a good idea. I just wonder about the amount of extra data it generates per user and what impact it has on operating costs

[skal-dB]

None ? I see that like a simple level of subfolders inside the "My Library" folder.

• My Library
• My/Library/Archive
• My Library/Western
• ...

It's not heavy data and it can be stored/edited localy I guess

Would love to an "Archive" feature guys.

"Great app. How about an "Archive" option so I can select to hide shows I have watched, AND hide shows I don't want to watch, from the Discover page and from my Library. Else those pages get too cluttered. Tx. "
