I see this 8-year-old request hasn't been updated in 9 months. Any update on the progress or when we should look forward to this feature? 

Not yet but it's still on our radar. Hopefully soon.

+1 To this, Smartplaylist could be a great solution for re watching series with a rule to Delete from playlist when played status is reached.

  I could mark unwatched a series, but that breaks the trakt integration specially if you a seeing a series from multiple sources.

+1 to this. It's a great idea.

I've checked out the Smart List plugin and it seems to work ok but i was hoping for the playlist to be a library heading (instead of a "Collection") where i could feature Netflix, Amazon etc studios and other custom stuff. I couldn't get that to work accurately in the aforementioned plugin.

Really would love this feature, so i can create a list of unseen movies.

Strange this isnt added yet, and the request is open for soi long time now.

Hopefully soon....

Be able to create playlist based on a certain criteria, like genre and or year, in order to create a dynamic playlist that it refreshes automatically when new content is added.

 

This way you can for example, create a tv comedy playlist from the 90's, or a new sci-fi Movies playlist.

 

Some other criteria for rules could be the rating, watched/unwantched, score, tags, language, audio codec, etc

 

The possibilities could be endless

Yes, in a way that makes it behave in a ui sense like a collection just my opinion

Just adding my +1 here. Would add +100 if I could.

I just want to select a pile of unwatched shows and shuffle play them.

Just here to show my support for this as well. The "Smart Playlists 2.0" Plugin by @ShanePis great and fulfills a lot of the requirements already. But the most important part is missing, and that's including the collections and playlists into the homescreen, so users can discover new and interesting content easily. (As well as the sorting functionality inside the collections/playlists!)

"Recently added" on the homescreen just doesn't cut it anymore, and i say this as a big emby fan and premiere user for years. We are slowly approaching 10 years since this feature request was brought up and we still don't have it on the horizon. It's quite disheartening to be honest. Maybe work with @ShanePto refine the plugin and include it into emby? He obviously has a solid base already. Obviously this would be a premiere feature.

I know that developing emby is hard and a lot of work, i appreciate Luke and the other devs a lot and i love supporting this project.
But i can't stress enough how much this feature would elevate emby to the next level for a lot of users.

+1 on this.. 

I am planning on leaving Plex for Emby but this is one of the most important changes that i will be missing with Plex.

Actually this is going to be a focal point of the 4.9 release, so you’re all in luck.

OH YES! FINALLY!

I am lurking this forum now like every 3 months for a long time and always only check this thread. I am really missing the "favorites" functions/handling in emby, but i can't live without smart playlists.

I moved to plex some years ago only because of this.

As soon as smart playlists are possible and the management for them (sorting possible in folders) is great i will move back the same day!

This is indeed great news - I'm looking forward to this :)

I hope we get an API interface as part of the new feature set - allowing us to create our own dynamic smartlists via plugins/scripts and display the results as home screen rows - this will be a real game changer imo.

@Lukeif you fulfill this much needed request, making our TV playlists “shuffle” function wife approved, you’ll be removing a pain point in my day to day life you can’t possibly imagine. I couldn’t be more happy having found this.
