Movie sets not working for smart playlists?

However, it's still (practically speaking) all or nothing - no way to have sets in playlistX or viewY but not in playlistZ or viewA.

It's the only option we have for Eden as anything else requires UI changes.

Excellent, will look forward to this in Eden!

Thank you very much.

Great news !!!

This option is available in a nightly build version of XBMC ?

I'm running Eden Beta 2 and I can't found this option in Settings -> Video -> Library.

I can't seem to get this to work.

I have 4 smart playlists based on 'paths': Films, TV, Kids Film, Kids TV.

I have enabled the 'Group Movies into Sets' option, and set the playlist to sort by <title>.

I have edited the .nfo to have the correct <sort title> and <set>, but if I enter the smart playlist the movies are still in the incorrect order.

You need to refresh the movie info

I can see where there is 2 ways to use smartlists and sets.

1. You use smartlists based on e.g. Genre, and definitely want your sets in there..
2. You Use smartlist with "sets" as criteria, e.g. smartlist consist of all movies with set tag <set>kids movies</set> and then you don't what "sets" showing in smartlist because the smartlist would be one big new set, and you would go into smartlist and then into the set, which is not very elegant.

I've found, however a workaround. If you add 2 criteria in scenario 2 above, which both are true (e.g. set name, and path) you will get both, all elements, AND the set. In this particular case of course, the set is just a duplicate of all movies already in the smartlist, but I can live with that.

If others have different ways of showing a smartlist with all kids movies in a folder, which is also a part of a set, without also listing the set in the smartlist, I would like to hear from you.... Smile

PS! I don't want to disable set view globally of course.
PS2 The reason kids movies are in a set, is I want them under 1 Icon in Movies, and not mixed with all the other movies.

It's a bug that's already fixed for pre-Frodo that the seperate movies appear alongside the movie sets
