Have episodes marked as read be counted in the listening statistics
I recently moved to Podcast Addict from another app and I'm absolutely loving it.
However, there are podcasts that I fully listened to in the previous app which aren't counted in the listening statistics. Marking them as read doesn't add them to the total listening time. I could manually go through each episode and skip through it but obviously it would save a lot of time if marking a series of podcasts as read adds the total listening time of that podcast to the stats.

I don't want all episodes I mark to be included I nthe listened time. Maybe a compromise? Add a Skip tag similar to the Listened tag. Listened would add it to the Listened time, and Skip would not.

I also support the incorporating of episodes marked as played into the playback statistics as not only would I like to be have counted time that I've listened through other players, but also if at some point a podcast is either unsubscribed from.or deleted then all the listening time accumulated previously is erased and not restored if resubscribed to.

the listening or Playback statistics isn't working properly. Because I use the fast forward and skip a lot and what I noticed is It doesn't count the statistic based on the actual listening time but the elapsed time per episode.
So if I skip to the end of an episode, it will automatically count it as time listened.
If I listen to an episode twice, it will not count the second time since it only counts the elapsed time.
And if I'm half way through and go back to the beginning, it will also reduce the statistics.My suggestion is you find a way to record the stats based on the time an episode is actually playing. Really hope this helps and really hope you can correct this.

Yeah I agree, I have episodes that I mark as having read but in the statistics it says I haven't listened to the episode. This seems strange since the stats are therefore tracking the time spent with an episode active in the player rather than totalling up the time listed for the episodes.
