GoldenSpider 7 Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 (edited) I know theres been a playlist feature already Requested for Music. but It would be great if we could have a playlist feature for movies and TV as well and have it keep track of where you were in the playlist. Kinda like an editable "Watch next" or "next up" feature that you see in Youtube or Spotify etc For instance when you have for instance the Pokemon Anime, which has both movies and TV shows, often times with the movies being random Smack dab in the middle of the season. currently I have to creatively edit the title of the episode in my folders to have emby think the movie is "Season 2 episode 34 part 2" so that it will play after episode 34 but before episode 35 and without breaking the metadata. but if I could just have it in my Movies folder where it belongs (since its a movie) and create a playlist telling it to play episode 34 and then play the movie, then go to episode 35. that would be great Edited March 28, 2023 by GoldenSpider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't understand what do you have to "creatively rename". The only thing lacking is actual progress within the playlist, for which you can lend your support here: Edit: Another option for your scenario is to create strm file pointing to your movie as a Special for your TV show and ensure playback placement via its metadata.

How do you actually create a playlist? there doesn't seem to be any overt option for doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
