I have thousands of games which I have started just once and with a playtime of under 5 minutes which are all shown as active/in progress. I think the 30 minute value for setting it as active doesn´t work.

And I think the old badge "Not played" is redundant know. I have cases where the badge is shown two times (one is the old badge and one for the progress mechanism)

Yeah, we're looking into the playtime criteria. Unplayed/Completed badges will both be removed in the new beta as well.

Don't believe this is beta related and should probably be moved to it's own troubleshooting thread so it doesn't get lost in the shuffle. This is likely related to the changes pertaining to video playback since migrating to .NET 9. Spin up a new thread people can attempt to help you work through the issue there. Biggest first step is to make sure you let the installer install Klite and it's codecs for you.

Hey buddy! Can create a new thread in the troubleshooting section of the forums. Really we aren't too picky to these sorta things outside of the beta thread.

I'm confused about this part.  Weren't the badges the point of the play progress feature?

I'm referring to the legacy badges that existed before we moved to the new "Progress" field. Old badges would show if play time/count were 0, or if you had the completed checkbox checked. New Progress badge/system should already assign the value accordingly to "Not Started / In Progress" or "Done / Mastered" and would show the appropriate badge, making the old badges redundant. Because of that we're getting rid of the old to make room for the new and avoid potential confusion.

Ok, thanks for explaining... so the new badges still show under the box art in LB?

It'll show where ever your theme places them. Just have to enable the progress badge and it'll show.

Ok, sounds good.
