Smart playlist - moacir.ferreira - 12th Apr, 2015 05:57 AM

I am trying to create a smart play list for video. I followed the quite simple steps but I can't get the playlist to play. Anyone could do it? If so, can you share how to get it working?

My playlist file content is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<smartplaylist type="movies">
<name></name>
<match>all</match>
<rule field="path" operator="is">
<value>/home/xbian/Content/</value>
</rule>
<order direction="ascending">random</order>
</smartplaylist>

I got all my videos at "/home/xbian/Content/" but the list always shows empty.

Thanks,
Moacir

Ok, you must index your video library before you can use smart playlists. The challenge is to create your own index (movie information file) for all your personal videos.
