Post-Credit / Mid-Credit Scenes

It would be awesome if K could add any Post or Mid-Credit scenes to the scenes list. And even add that to the Movie Card (Or Movie Details, as K calls it) with something like "Movie has Post-Credit / Mid-Credit Scenes"... It's a "thing" in movie buff circles, so it would make sense for K to pick up on it ;-)
 
For those with automated lighting hooked up to their K, I'd always wondered if the theatre lights would turn on at the credits if there was still a post-credit scene to come.
 
If you stop the movie after the credits and there are scenes still coming, when you check the status of the movie it will still show “Resume Movie” showing you missed something. Otherwise, it just shows “Play Movie”.

I believe I've read that they will NOT send the "end credits" light cue until after all credit scenes have ran.
 
So it seems K does know if there are mid- or Post-Credit scenes. So it should be an easy “fix” to add a label to the Movie Card, and even add it to the Scenes list
 
I would not be in favor of adding these to the K marked scenes. This seems like the perfect fit for people who want these to mark them on their own (and then share on this forum).

Curious as to why you would not want them as one of the K Marked scenes?

I watch when I first watch the movie and never watch them again. I want marked scenes to be for things I might watch multiple times or would use in a script.

Just my preference and I could be off from the general consensus.

Regarding the lighting triggers, the way we try to do this is if there are elaborate animated credits and/or a scene that comes after the initial principal cast and crew credits, but before the bulk of the credits, we will hold off on the lighting trigger (and because it uses the same trigger, marking the movie "watched" and removing the pause bookmark) until that scene is complete. If the movie has a scene aallllll the way at the end (Ferris Bueller style), then we do not hold the lighting trigger that long.
