I cannot get the playlist you provided to work. Anyone have success setting up the Playlist and if so please provide step by step instructions?

1.Download one playlist you like. e.g. "get-comedy-movie.xsp"
2.Copy it under / userdata / Playlists / Video.
3.Open PLTV settings and choose "Channel configuration"
4.Choose a channel to create with "custom playlists" and select get-comedy-movie.xsp.
5.Open PLTV and you will have a channel containing all the movies you have in your kodi library with genre "Comedy"

Of course you have to see if there are other parameters in playlist.You can check this with notepad.

You can download the whole package and use autotune, but the channels that will be created depend on your local stuff scraped in your library

As Lunatixz said it's a good base in order to create your own simple or multi playlists

OK. I understand the process. But how do I get what I want into the library. For example when I add the hbo playlist Luna provides, it does not find anything.

When you are in the playlists view of Kodi and you can see all the playlists in the directory, if you bring up the context menu and choose edit playlist that will show you what the playlist is looking for. A few of the playlists that Lunatixz has for certain channels are actually looking for TV shows from that channel. For a HBO channel, the best suggestion is set the smart playlist using Episodes, and for Find Items where, make sure to set to 'Studio' and 'is' is selected and for 'Browse' browse to HBO, that is if you have HBO studio shows in your library. The Playlist options you can play around with, but that should get you a smart playlist setup for HBO studio shows. I hope that helps.
