Hi Daniel, I have checked the settings for the iPad: 'automatically sync' not selected
but sync tv shows and sync movies is - in each tab Should I change the setting in Summary to : manually manage music and videos? Currently set to 'sync only checked songs and videos'.

Make sure where sit says "Automatically include" you don't have it set to any of the "unwatched" settings. If you do, then once it's watched, it won't sync anymore.
