Emby Theatre - Change Movie Spotlight to Featured or Something

[Jack Burton 98]

I love the look of the movie/tv spotlight in theatre but I find I never use it. The odds of something randomly popping up that I want to watch is pretty low, at least for me. Would it be possible to have access to the spotlight and make a playlist, maybe on the server end? I'd love to change it to a "featured" list. For example, I just got "The Gift" (2000) and will want to watch it soon, but I don't like having older movies in the latest movies section. Generally when this happens, I change the added date so it disappears off the latest movies list, but more often than not, forget about the movie. If spotlight was changed to a featured type list, the movies I want to watch down the line can be added and are front and centre. It would also give me access to set up features for the wife's account. If I get a movie she's been wanting, I could tag it as a feature and it's front and centre next time she logs in.

Interesting idea, though I also like the current spotlight functionality as well. It could be cool to have the option of both. Some of what you wrote feels somewhat related to this other thread (not a duplicate, but potentially relevant discussion): https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/47611-movie-queue/

I think this would be an awesome addition if we could have it display like the top 20 unwatched, most recently added items from a library
