Is there any technical or logical reason why there is no 'Date added' rule in Mixed type mode of a smart playlist? The rule is only available if I chose a specific type (like Movies or TV Shows).

Probably because 'mixed' can contain music albums/songs and/or music videos and there is no 'date added' field for albums or songs.

Is it somehow possible to have movies and TV Shows in kind of a mixed mode? I don‘t want to have separate smart playlists for both. Those do have the ‚Date added‘ field...

I think you'd need to use 3 lists. One with movies, one with TV shows and one to combine the two into one list. I've not tested that but I think that would work.

Unfortunately does not work. Looks like it is only possible to combine playlists of the same type.
