Hello,

I found before that some of the Best Picture winners have a rating less than 7 in IMDb, so I stopped using the Best2 playlist. Here is my Best Picture playlist:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<smartplaylist type="movies">
    <name>Best Picture</name>
    <match>all</match>
    <rule field="playlist" operator="is">
        <value>Best1</value>
    </rule>
    <order direction="ascending">year</order>
</smartplaylist>

And my Best1 playlist:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<smartplaylist type="movies">
    <name>Best1</name>
    <match>one</match>

I also have a RecentBestPic playlist that I use as a widget and background for the Oscars main menu item in MadNox. Here it is:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<smartplaylist type="movies">
    <name>Recent BestPic</name>
    <match>all</match>
    <rule field="playlist" operator="is">
        <value>Best Picture</value>
    </rule>
    <limit>25</limit>
    <order direction="descending">dateadded</order>
</smartplaylist>

As you can see, my playlist only has Best Picture winners, with their English titles.

Hope these can be useful.

Regards,

Bart
