I've been creating more and more smart playlists to use as widgets on the home screen of Kodi so it got me thinking. What custom home screen widgets do you use that me or someone else may not have thought of?

You are asking an infinite question, meaning that it has no ending or not really at least.

Each skin is different, so you will have different set ups to match that skin. 

Some play lists might suit Titan Bingie for example, but they might not be as good on Aura for example.

At the moment if you are a sick puppy, then you might have a biological doomsday play list, or just a disaster play list.

I always have a special feature play list that is shown on occasions, such as Halloween, so my special feature is Horror, Christmas obviously Christmas movies. If an actor or actress dies, then as a silent tribute, then I will make up a playlist, especially if it is someone that was a legend.

You then make up your own Netflix play list, Disney +, Hulu

The list is really endless, unless you have limited movies or indeed imagination.

I am not sure if you are trying to look like a man, rather than a boy or you just want to get your post count up. However, you could have still posted what playlists you have, but no, you had to try and be a hard man. Epic fail.

If you use the search function, you will see that this question has been asked hundreds of times before. My answer is that playlists are only as limited as your imagination. Which is the truth, I even offered some suggestions such as doing a Disney +, Hulu etc playlist. However, what did you offer? Nothing but a personal attack or an attempt of one.

@Video Titles

I think it's best for you to take a breather and perhaps take a time-out from this forum. You were already given a warning by another moderator, and things now seem to go from bad to worse in a unhealthy atmosphere.

Let this topic go, and take a couple of deep breaths. Sleep it off if you can.
