Return "Go to Series" option

• I agree to follow Jellyfin's Code of Conduct.

Problem Description

Previously, when selecting a video that was partially played the context menu you would have the option to go to the season or series.

I used this quite frequently because the queue of partially watched videos doesnt like to update if you skip ahead in the season.

I would like this functionality back, or as an option in the settings.

Thank you!

Proposed Solution

When trying to resume playing a partially played episode of a tv series, bring up a context menu that allows you return to the season of the show, or the series itself.

Alternatives Considered

Allow users to turn off this choice as a setting.

I would also like to see this to return. I use this functionality all the time.

There is a setting under User Interface that lets you pick between going to the Episode details or going to the Season. Let us know if that meets your needs.

Thanks jimdogx,

It doesn't quite hit what I was after. I liked the original pop-up context menu because it gave you choice of series, season, or episode.

I don't see series as a choice right now, just season or episode.

Thank you, jimdogx,

But I also agree with Serversonic. I liked having the option to go to the series because, potentially, the season of the "up next" or "continue watching" episode isn't the season that I am looking for. Additionally, I get a lot of use out of the shuffle option on the series itself.

Selecting "Go To Series" from the context menu after selecting an episode was much faster than going to the Search, typing in the series name, and then getting to the show's main page.

If there was an option to go from the season to the series, or from the the episode details to the season or series, that might be all right (though I would prefer the context menu when selecting an episode), but currently, there is no way I can see to get to the series from there.

Also, and I do understand this isn't quite in the scope of what this enhancement request is but, because the context menu doesn't show up when selecting an episode from the "Continue Watching" section of the UI, we no longer have the option to play from wherever the episode was last stopped at or to start the episode over from the beginning (though it is an option on the episode itself).
