  • Suggestion: split up Favorites and Likes, or add icon for Watch Later

petermc well perhaps another much more useful way to approach this is to setup feedback ratings broken down into categories. Casting. Performance. Technicals. Premise/Setting, etc. The overall scene rating would be the average of the individual ratings, and all of this is separated from the add to favorites heart button. This way it’s possible to utilize favorites for the various purposes people do, and also provide specific measurable scene feedback to SLR itself. This way decision makers can see that a scene or series of scenes may get lambasted for technical problems, or what some see as poor directing choices, without that reflecting badly on a popular star who still gave a great performance.

    Also pixel size, bitstream size, makeup quality, angle positions etc

      If I may please make an additional suggestion-- PLEASE stop using what I assume is red/green and use colors that folks like me with colorblindness can actually tell apart. I have to open every damn scene and check whether the background is pink or whatever on the actual scene page. The icons on the browse pages are useless πŸ™

        sixfgrs They're using pink and gray. That's interesting that it's so hard to tell apart for you; I wonder if it's because they're similarly bright. This could be also solved if the hearts in the browsing section were changed to be an outline when not selected, rather than just being color swapped, so you could tell by the shape that it's different.

          Will pass this along πŸ‘οΈ

          anordr that’s hilarious, I had no idea. They all look the same to me. I would totally prefer outline vs filled which is the industry standard

          I've tested using the Watch Later playlist rather than hearts to track my collection, and while it does feel good to contribute my tiny bit to the rating of the movies I like, it's definitely more painful to use. The biggest issue I have with it still turns out to be visibility; when browsing videos or looking at an individual entry, I simply can't tell whether it's on my Watch Later playlist unless I have it memorized or I click into the triple-dot submenu just to see its status, which is a huge hassle. So, @[deleted]'s suggestion about adding a Watch Later icon would be a big help. I'd still prefer the icon to be as easy to interact with as the hearts are with their one-click convenience, but just showing some sort of indicator of a movie's status on the Watch Later list without having to click into each movie's menu would still be a substantial improvement.

          Do you have problems with this anywhere else on the site/app?

          sixfgrs Hey just letting you know it's live now on web πŸ™‚

          @[deleted] I noticed that the Watch Later icon has turned into a bookmark and there are now little blue bookmarks you can check next to movies, which is awesome. One thing I would note though is that when you go into the movie details, I'd also expect the same bookmark icon to be available, next to the larger heart counter on the right. Currently the bookmarks are only visible when viewing lists.

            Noted, I'll ask the guys to add a button aswell πŸ™‚
            Hope you enjoy using this

            well done!! This helps me a lot :-)

            Do we want to fork favorites? Will make it both like and favorites playlist to start with. From then users can either like video or add it to the favorites list

              Great idea. I was just thinking about unfavoriting a few videos so they don't clog up the latest videos I've favorited, but opted not to because unfavoriting might make it seem like I don't support the video. Adding separate buttons for liking and favoriting would fix that.

              doublevr I personally would love to see these split. A list for favorite and an option to like videos without adding them to a list.

              Personally for ease of development too, I would even say it would be acceptable to migrate a users current favorite list to the new split off favorites and starting a video like count with the current number of times it’s been favorited.
