Smart playlist n00b. Could use some help. - Jacoeb - 2024-05-26

Hello everyone. This is what i would like to achieve. I have a group of shows I would like to have play randomly but in order. So for example, I would get episode 1 of show A, then episode 1 of show C, then episode 1 of show B. Then it would play episode 2 of show a,b, or c. so on and so forth. Between the episodes i would like a random video played from a different tag or library. Like a small commercial break.

So I guess it would be like, Play the next episode of random show with this specific show tag, then play a random video with this "commercial" tag. And then just repeat this cycle.

Total newbie to smart playlists. I was looking around at the documentation but was getting a little confused. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Not possible with smart playlists alone... However you can accomplish it with PseudoTV Live https://forum.kodi.tv/forumdisplay.php?fid=151

Thanks for the reply and cool addon you made there. Do I need to install the beta version to get the custom "commercial" function or will a stable version suffice? Thanks again!

Currently the project is beta and does not have a stable release... and yes commercials are functioning but are not well documented at the moment. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
