Jellyfin Smart Playlists (git.redxef.at)

Hi!

I've been working on a smart playlist plugin for Jellyfin for a couple of weeks, and by now it's at a stage where I can say it's usable and doesn't have any show-stopper bugs. The playlists are created and edited in the plugin's settings.

A simple configuration for all liked pop songs would look like this:

Id: Favourite Pop
Name: Favourite Pop
Program: |
  (and (is-type "Audio") (is-favorite) (is-genre "pop" (genre-list)))
SortProgram: |
  (begin *items*)

It supports reflection, so any filter or property can be added without modifying the plugin directly; most of the pre-defined filters are implemented this way.

There also is a mirror at Codeberg: codeberg.org/redxef/jellyfin-smart-playlist

Is this only for music, or tv shows as well? I find myself shuffling shows a lot and it was nice in Plex to have a smart playlist and exclude shows that had been played in the last X days from the playlist.

Not yet, though thats a feature worth looking at. I'm thinking that it should be collections instead of playlists. If you add 3 shows to a playlist only the episodes will appear there, while the collection will only show the tv show (or season, whatever you added).
