I currently have Emby Windows v. 4.8.7.0. installed. I just created a playlist on one of my Emby user accounts.  In the past, the playlist would show across all user accounts, now they do not. I see my old playlist in all user accounts, but new ones only show in the account that created it.  I looked up where the metadata is stored and the difference I see is the folder is now "userplaylists" vs "playlists".  When I try to copy the new playlist from userplaylist into playlist, I get the same results ... and vice-versa.  Is this something new that playlist are unique to each user?  If so, how can I duplicate (import/export?) the same playlist to another user?  Thanks in advance.

Did you enable the option to share them for your user?

I did not.  But I applied it on your recommendation.  Still it does not work.  I ensured all my libraries were shared.  Still no go.  I restarted the server.  No change.  I thought, maybe I have to create it after I share.  I did a test Playlist.  Still does not work.

Hi, in 4.8 playlists are private per user. 

now that you’ve checked that box, try using the 3 dot menu to manage collaboration for that playlist.

Thanks Luke!  That was it!  I generally view release notes when I have a problem, but in my haste I did not check there.  Thanks again!
