Custom Top 250 Playlist? - WIRLYWIRLY - 2023-01-31
Hello,
I'm trying to create a smart-playlist like the IMDB top 250; A list that is pre-defined with movies and the items will appear in the playlist as they are added to the library.
I'm not sure how the IMDB top 250 playlist does it, I was looking all-over for the playlist file but I couldn't find it. Is it even a playlist file?
My best guess is that it has a rule for every title, which is what I tried, but Kodi keeps sorting by title instead of simply displaying them in the order the rule was defined.
Anyone know where I can find the IMDB playlist or if not how I might get my playlist to function in the same fashion?
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<smartplaylist type="movies">
<name>Top 250 Feature Films</name>
<match>one</match>
<group>none</group>
<rule field="title" operator="is">
<value>The Godfather</value>
</rule>
<rule field="title" operator="is">
<value>12 Angry Men</value>
</rule>
...
<rule field="title" operator="is">
<value>The Shawshank Redemption</value>
</rule>
<rule field="title" operator="is">
<value>The Good, the Bad and the Ugly</value>
</rule>

No, that guy's list is the same as mine; 1 rule for each title and then Kodi sorts it alphabetically.
My issue is that I DON'T want the sorting, I just want the list to be displayed in the order I've defined the rules.
