Movie Smart Playlist

Hi.

Now that Firefly can serve movies, how do I create a smart playlist that will show them.

Thanks

The key piece is “has_video=1”. All the rest of the metadata info is the same.

I’m a bit thick. How do I apply that to the “playlist criteria”

Ah. Sorry. It doesn’t show up on the wizardy thing — you’ll have to put it in the criteria manually, in the text box without using the wizard, or by editing it after getting close with the wizard.

Somethine like:

has_video=1 and artist = “Garbage”

to get all those garbage videos you have. Or whatever.

You could also scan for comment or grouping as well.

I intend soon to add the newer metadata — metadata for tv episode, podcast, etc, so it will be easier to make playlists based on that.

Also note that smart playlists appear to be broken in latest two nightlies.
