If I should post this somewhere else just let me know. I discovered this addon today and love it but there are a few shows I would like to watch in episode order without having to leave the Pseudo TV "Feel".
To test this out I created a custom channel that refers back to two smart playlists: One lists my tv shows that I haven't watched in the last four weeks in episode order, the second lists all of my sitcoms. My custom channel now looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<smartplaylist type="episodes">
<name>Comedy Channel</name>
<match>all</match>
<rule field="playlist" operator="is">Not Watched</rule>
<rule field="playlist" operator="is">Comedy</rule>
<limit>100</limit>
<order direction="ascending">episode</order>
</smartplaylist>
If I go to the playlist normally (outside of Pseudo) then it gives me show_a1x01, followed by show_b 1x01, etc. Psuedo TV however plays it back like this: show_a1x01, show_a2x01, show_b1x01, show_b2x01, etc.
In other words it is playing the first episode from each of the seasons then changing shows, then playing the second episode from each season.
Any ideas on how I can get it to play in episode order?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,
Correct. Episode is the x01 part of the filename.
If you order by first aired, it will sort by the date the episode first aired, so the list episodes will appear in the order they aired in for the current tv channel. You can reference my existing playlist collection at http://tiny.cc/xbmcplaylists
