Yep, it's not nice but costs nearly nothing

Hey man, this might be a weird question, but is there any way to replicate what your "Continue Watching" TV Show episode widget does as a smartplaylist? I ask because my kodi machine is pretty slow, so it takes ~30 seconds to populate the widget, and I saw this post from the author of the Bingie skin: 

Can widget loading be faster? Regarding loading of widgets: Widgets from library node/smartplaylist will be much much faster than widgets from plugin source, including skin helper widgets that does a pre-processing. Most of the widgets are possible to make with only smartplaylists, with the exception of Mixed media and widgets based on trakt/tmdb or other plugin source. 

This led me to believe I could re-create your widget -- which is a God send -- as a smart playlist so that it loads more swiftly on my resource-poor machine.  Sorry for the bother
