Playlist: Movies/TV show - Possible? - Lars Christian Gamborg - 2025-01-14
I wonder if its even possible to make a playlist with movies or tv episodes. I am a bit unsure where to start with this.
I tried using M3U. Does it even support adding video-files?
I quickly added a few paths video files. Jellyfin did see the playlist, but the paths itself were not recognized. So it might be the path is not correct.
Does it have to go straight to a specific file, or does it recognize files within a folder?
I am running Jellyfin on a QNAP. I am not even sure how a path should look like in this context.

Jellyfin can make playlists within the UI. For each movie or episode, or even an entire show, click on the "..." context menu and "Add to playlist". You can then add to an existing playlist or start a new one.
But Jellyfin does support M3U playlists. The M3U playlist must be located within a folder that is part of a library and the path in the M3U must be either a relative path (from the M3U's location) to the piece of media or an absolute path. When using docker, the absolute path must be the path from within the container's reference frame.
