In Watch Recordings with the episode highlighted: MENU|Storage
Options|Mark as Watched
or enable the setting:
Automatically mark a recording as watched
If set, when you exit near the end of a recording it will be marked as
watched. The automatic detection is not foolproof, so do not enable this
setting if you don't want an unwatched recording marked as watched.
in mythfrontend settings, Utilities/Setup|Setup|TV Settings|Playback and
then when you exit a record "near" the end, it will automatically mark
it as watched (and you can unmark it manually using the approach above).
