Emby Playlists

[Junglejim 41]

Hi guys, I thought I'd start a topic on playlists.. With the new Smart Playlist plugin and also Emby's native playlist support. (hopefully Playlists will get the update they deserve at some point)..

I thought it would be a good to throw some ideas around on what playlist's you personally use, or you think would be a good suggestion.

So.. Lets share some. I don't have many at the mo but hopefully this post can fix that.

This is me at the mo..

Anime: Created by Smart Playlists - Set to watched and random

DC Animated Universe: Created by Smart Playlists - All my DC animated movies sorted by date.

DC Cinematic Universe: Created by Emby - Sorted Chronological order manually.

How the Universe Works: Created by Smart Playlists - Set to random. (my fave list to fall asleep to )

Marvel Cinematic Universe: Created by Emby - Sorted Chronological order manually.

New Releases: Created by Smart Playlists - Movies sorted by release date.

I think collections would be better container to solve your purpose

Solve? I don't want to solve anything! Collections have there place for sure but for me that's movies  (2+) created by TMDB!

I don't create my own collections, that's just me.

I prefer playlists for this sort of thing, sure collections look better but hopefully playlists will get the update they need soon..

Plus a Smart Playlist is dynamic and will update as you add new content or shuffle each day if they are set to random. Collections as a custom list can't do that.
