Originally created by @rchovan on GitHub (Mar 27, 2020).

Continue watching does not work for DLNA. When I play and stop watch movie from web browser, or Jellyfin app, then I can see it "Continue watching" on browser, or mobile app. But this information is not available over DLNA. Does not matter if I star movie over DLNA, or I want to continue over DLNA, folder Continue watching is empty.

System :

OS: main OS Debian, running in docker
Virtualization: Docker
Clients: DLNA (LG WebOS)
Jellyfin Version: 10.5.2
Playback: does not matter
Installed Plugins: auto organize
Reverse Proxy: none, available only from LAN
Base URL: none
Networking: Host
Storage: local

To Reproduce

Connect over DLNA
Navigate to "Continue watching" folder
nothing is displayed

Expected behavior
Show media which belongs to actual library and are valid for resume playback.

Logs
can't find anything usable in logs. If you can instruct me what should I debug, I can provide more useful logs.

There should be some DLNA debug options somewhere, right @prplhaz4?
Also I think DLNA was bugged this way from the beginning, so it's a long-standing inherited issue if my memory serves me well.

Admin dashboard -> dlna -> debug logging

This is likely a bug in how the dynamic folder is generated and the fact that dlna does not track playback progress (so if purely dlna there will be no way to make something in-progress)

Edit to add - apparently there is a way to track progress in DLNA - Samsung uses the X_SetBookmark method: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/blob/master/Emby.Dlna/ContentDirectory/ControlHandler.cs#L163 to update progress...
