Unless I am misinterpreting the rules, I can't get the last played rule to work. What I'm trying to achieve is only show items watched by any user in the last 30 days.

The rules should be correct. When I’m running with the exact same filter I get positive results..

Is it the Tag or Home Screen section that ends up empty?
 

Do you see anything in the log (enable extended log)?

I could mention for everyone that even though this is a stable release, there will probably be some bugs found. It’s stable in the sense that it will not break anything and all functionality is working as expected (except some bugs). 
 

I have tested all filters for the smart playlist, but when we start to combine them in weird ways and on other systems I expect some smaller issues. 
 

Thanks for all help and all bug reports!

How does “Last Played Date” handle unwatched items?

What do you mean? If it's not watched then it's not played, and therefore the filter will ignore them. 

The "Last Played" filter will give you all items that have been played within the days you set by the selected user.

It will give you movies that are started but not finished, and movies that are completed. 
So for example, a movie that the selected user have watched 15% of and 100% will be included. (It still need to pass the threshold set in Emby library settings, default 2%).  

 

I noticed now the filter only gives movies, it should also give series. I'll look into that. 

Anyone else noticed more filters that only gives movies? My intention has always been to include both movies and series as default.

If the rule is, say, “last played date > 100,” it's not clear whether or not unwatched items should be included.
