So, an update. I cleared all the movies from the "Continue Watching" section by resetting their watch status (two clicks on the checkmark option), which in the logs generated:

The section remained clear until I added a new movie to the collection, and now the "Continue Watching" section has repopulated with the movies that were there before, and all the logs show is this:

So it DOES look like the Kodi Sync is adding these items back to the section somehow in the "Library Sync: Updated 14 items" line, I guess? Any idea how to deal with this beyond ditching Kodi?

I installed Kodi, installed Jellycon, hated the UI and UX, uninstalled it. That is my experience level with Kodi. Upside-down-face

You may just need to uninstall the Kodi Sync plugin. Based on what I am reading in the git for that plugin, it is optional.

Hm, interesting. I'll try that, thanks.

FYI if anyone else has this problem in the future: Whatever is causing it, turns out it isn't Kodi Sync Queue. Uninstalled the plugin, problem disappeared for a while, but it's back now. Nothing out of the ordinary in the logs. Just gonna disable that section on the home page and move on with my life.

[EDITED TO ADD: This problem appears to have been caused by NFO settings. In Dashboard>Libraries>NFO Settings, I changed "Save user watch data to NFO files for" from my user to "none", this problem appears to have vanished.]
