How do I create and load video playlists?

Post by bobotech »

I am using xbmc on my soft modded og xbox with the original drive.

It is the version that was avaible about 5 months ago. Works great.

I have it setup so that it accesses all our movies and pictures from our media pc which is a windows 7 64bit computer in the living room running xbmc as well. I shared all the movies through xbmc on the computer. I then access the library on my og xbox by connecting to the media computer.

My wife likes to watch a bunch of movies over and over in the bedroom while we sleep so what I want to do is to create playlists of the movies she likes so that we cna just load the playlist and it will play them.

I can add videos to the now playing list and then save it but I have no idea how to load them. I don't even know where it saves the playlists for the now playing list.

Ideas, suggestions?

Hi I always wondered the same thing , I tried to save the playlist couple of times then could not find it and said f it.. lol

but anyways decided couple of weeks ago to try again ..
and it is so so easy ..

after you added your movies and saved the playlist

go back to
Video -then Add source
click on browse
scroll down to "Video playlists" choose Ok

You can rename the title "Playlists"
If you just push ok and get out of it ..
"Playlists" is now listed with your network share folders ect...
you will also now see all your other saved files like I had found lol..

alternative and pointless way is.
browsing to x:\apps\xbmc\userdata\playlists\video <--- then choose ok
..replace x with your drive letter . and assuming its in apps folder.
