[QUOTE="Inker, post: 28198, member: 10541"] Just tried it. Works well. Couple of suggestions though. Listed in order of personal importance. Need to find a way to show the user the playlist. can you try to just call the playlist window before starting to play automatically? this way the user can see what was picked, but he/she can also delete entries that you dont want. This is the most important one for me. Let me specify, either when creating the template or when selecting a template from within mediaportal (preferred) how many videos to add (say you click on your template and a popup comes up allowing you to select anything from 1 to say 25 (should suffice) videos. I would need this so that I can watch something and fall asleep to it. I dont want it to keep playing all my videos at random while I sleep. Use Regex to further specify templates. This shouldnt be too hard actually. You can do this easily when adding the shows just run this one additional check on them before actually adding them. In config when specifying the template, just select your folder, and have two textboxes, one for includes and one for excludes and let me specify filename patterns. If one is empty dont utilize it. This would be good if you have alot of different shows in one folder but want to specify templates only for certain ones. Example. Include: "simpsons|futurama" would only pick files that have either simpsons or futurama (or both, lol) in their filename from the specified folder(s). Example Two: Include "star.trek" exclude: "voyager" would pick only shows that have "star" followed by any character(s) followed by "trek" but not any that have "voyager" in them from the specified folder(s). Also, maybe try to bring it into the context menu in myVideos when you select a folder, rather than its own home button. Hope this makes sense. Inker [/QUOTE]
