Configuración de la serie Lock

Lo que lograrás

Series Lock helps a group avoid moving to the next episode before everyone is ready. It keeps track of episode completion for the participants you choose and checks that progress when a participant starts an episode.

You can include profiles on your Odyssey account and accepted Odyssey friends. A friend joins using a profile on their own account. Each person still needs authorised access to the series through their own available source. Odyssey supplies no media, and a lock invitation does not supply provider access or media rights.

Antes de comenzar

Use a profile connected to your Odyssey account. Series Lock requires at least two selections in total, including your own profile. A second household profile or an accepted friend can be the other participant.

The series also needs an exact metadata match and a complete episode list. Metadata is the identifying information that connects the title to the correct series, seasons and episodes. If the title is incorrectly matched, fix that before creating the lock.

Si quieres permitir Requiere PIN de perfil para ver en cualquier caso, set up a profile PIN for every selected household profile first. A friend accepting a protected lock also needs a PIN for the profile they choose.

Crea el bloqueo

1. Open the series information page. On iPhone, iPad or Mac (Catalyst), choose Serie de Lock. On Apple TV, open the ⋯ Menú y elegir Serie de Lock.
2. Elegir un compartido apoyado Moda: Separatamente para la finalización de un episodio individual o Juntos for shared completion. If your app also shows Personal, read its Limitación de servicio actual antes de usarlo.
3. Decidir si se permite Requiere PIN de perfil para ver en cualquier caso.
4. bajo Profiles en esta cuenta, select the participating profiles. Your active profile is already selected.
5. bajo Amigos en otras cuentas de OdysseySeleccione a los amigos que desea invitar.
6. Elegir Serie de Lock and wait for the result. A disabled button usually means that fewer than two participants are selected or a request is still in progress.

The restricted profiles labelled Kids profiles can participate in household locks. Selecting one prevents adding friends from other accounts; their progress is not shared through that cross-account flow. These restriction controls do not change Odyssey’s 18+ access requirement.

Elegir la regla correcta del progreso

En Separatamente, each participant finishes episodes on their own profile. Someone who is ahead waits until the others have completed the earlier episodes. Watching a later episode does not erase a gap earlier in the series.

En Juntos, an episode marked watched by one participant is treated as watched for all joined participants. Existing completion is considered when the lock is created, and joining a Together lock can also merge existing completion. Agree on your starting point before selecting this mode.

Series Lock tracks episode completion. It does not create a synchronised playback session. Use Watch Party Cuando desea compartir controles de playback.

El ejemplo trabajado

Alex and Morgan are watching a six-episode drama on separate evenings. Alex creates a Separately lock and selects Morgan’s profile. Both finish episode one. Alex then finishes episode two while Morgan has not. When Alex tries episode three, the lock shows who is still being waited for.

Morgan completes episode two on the participating profile. Once that completion reaches the service, episode three becomes available within the shared pace. Merely opening episode two or starting it briefly is not the same as completing it.

Revisa, extend o elimine el bloqueo

Volver a la serie y elegir Gestión de la serie Lock. You can also open Configuraciones → Profiles → Gestión de Profiles de la Familia → My Series Locks. The management screen shows participants, their next episode, watched-ahead counts and invitations still awaiting acceptance.

El creador puede utilizar Revisando nuevos episodios from that series to add newly available episodes after the existing ordered list. This is useful when a new episode appears after you created the lock.

El creador ve Remover el bloqueo· otro participante elegible Deja loco. Removing the lock ends its waiting rule. Leaving removes your participation. Neither action supplies or deletes the source media. You cannot edit the mode or participant selection in place in the version covered here. Review the group before creating the lock.

Si algo no funciona

La serie no puede ser bloqueada: check its metadata match and reload its episode list. The app rejects a partial or uncertain list instead of guessing an order.

Un amigo está perdido: primero confirmar la solicitud de amigo en Amigos y invitaciones. An outstanding friend request is different from an accepted friendship and a Series Lock invitation.

El bloqueo no puede refrescar: check the account connection and try again. Access is checked with the service before playback; an offline or failed check is not confirmation that the group has caught up.

Un participante aparece ante: check the participating profile and existing watched history. Together and Separately intentionally treat completion differently.

Respuestas rápidas

¿Puedo cerrar una serie solo para mí? Shared Together and Separately locks require at least two participants. Newer apps also show Personal, but the deployed service does not yet accept it. See Cerraduras personales y PINs por los límites.

¿Puedo superar una espera? Mirando en cualquier caso can approve the requested episode. A protected lock asks for that profile’s PIN. It does not unlock the whole app session.
