Play Your System Smart Playlists (.xsp) in Chorus2 - Method - User 460556 - 2021-02-08
One of the shortcomings of Chorus2 is that it does not have a direct way to use and display system smart playlists. There is a way around this.
Using Music Playlists as an example, I've come up with an easy solution.
Create Music Playlist Favorite
Step 1: From the main Chorus2 screen, go to Settings, Main Menu.
Step 2: Click on Add Another button. A new blank entry should appear.
Step 3: Change that new entry to display the music playlist directory
Tile: Music Playlists
Url: browser/music/special%3A%2F%2Fprofile%2Fplaylists%2Fmusic
Icon: action favorite (or anything else you like better)
Step 5: Click on Save button (I often forget that)
Step 6: Click on the new icon. It should display any smart playlists that you have created, with the exception of PartyMode.xsp, which is stored elsewhere.
To add a playlist to the queue, double-click on the desired list.
To create a new playlist to display here, you need to create that smart playlist on the main interface, not in Chorus2.
