Configuração de série Lock

O que você vai alcançar

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 começar

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.

Se você quiser permitir Requer PIN de perfil para assistir em qualquer 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.

Crie o LOC

1. Open the series information page. On iPhone, iPad or Mac (Catalyst), choose Série de Lock. On Apple TV, open the ⋯ Menu e escolha Série de Lock.
2. Escolha um compartilhado suportado Moda: Separatamente para a conclusão de um episódio individual ou Juntos for shared completion. If your app also shows Personal, read its Limitações de serviço atuais antes de usá-lo.
3. Decidir se permitir Requer PIN de perfil para assistir em qualquer caso.
4. sob Profiles nesta conta, select the participating profiles. Your active profile is already selected.
5. sob Amigos em outras contas da OdysseyEscolha os amigos aceitos que você deseja convidar.
6. Escolha Série 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.

Escolha a regra do progresso certo

Em 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.

Em 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 Quando você quer compartilhar controles de playback.

Exemplo trabalhado

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.

Revisão, extensão ou remoção do bloqueio

Voltar para a série e escolher Gerenciamento de Lock. You can also open Configurações → Profiles → Gerenciar Profiles Familiar → My Series Locks. The management screen shows participants, their next episode, watched-ahead counts and invitations still awaiting acceptance.

O criador pode usar Revisão de novos episódios 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.

O Criador vê Remover o Lock• Outro participante elegível Deixe o Lock. 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.

Se algo não funciona

A série não pode ser fechada: check its metadata match and reload its episode list. The app rejects a partial or uncertain list instead of guessing an order.

Um amigo está faltando: Primeiro, confirme a solicitação de um amigo Amigos e convites. An outstanding friend request is different from an accepted friendship and a Series Lock invitation.

O fechamento não pode ser refrescado: 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.

Um participante aparece em frente: check the participating profile and existing watched history. Together and Separately intentionally treat completion differently.

Resposta rápida

Posso fechar uma série apenas para mim mesmo? 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 Lojas e PINs pessoais Para os limites.

Posso passar uma espera? Olhe em qualquer caso can approve the requested episode. A protected lock asks for that profile’s PIN. It does not unlock the whole app session.
