Smart playlists not filtering after playlist
#1
Hi

I'm trying to combine two playlists (A+B) into one ©:

A
Genre not Documentary
Genre not Home and Garden
Genre not Special Interests
Match all

B
TV-show is Top Gear
TV-show is Grand Designs
Match one

C
Playlist is A
Playlist is B
Match one

Now - playlist A and B both works as intended, but playlist C is empty. Why is that?

Another thing - XBMC doesn't seem to update the name of the playlists if they are renamed, or even deleted.

Hello,

Remove the ".xsp" extension from your combined playlist.

Thanks a lot - it worked. A bit un-intuitive though since XBMC adds the .xsp when selecting the playlist.

Thanks for this as well, I couldn't figure why my Smart Playlists weren't working when referencing other playlists. As fungify said very unintuitive, xbmc adds the extension it then can't reference!

Thanks

Just tested it and it works fine for me with and without the .xsp at the end of the "Playlist is" rule.

Maybe you fixed this in Eden? I don't know, what I do know is thatit does not work in Dharma, for me and many others who come across this problem. It has been like this for a long time.

Hi,
Just tried it again, and its still only working if I delete the .xsp at the end.
I am running Eden Beta3.
