Plexweb (Pms settings). Just tap a show or movie and on the left there is a option to add to playlist.

Also, if you start a TV show from Unwatched etc, it seems to to a play all on the other episodes in that season (or at least it was in the original version that introduced continuous play on playlists, but I have not done this recently), but it doe snot do this from On Deck.

I know. I asked if this was a option in another topic. At this time you must add content via plexweb to a playlist then using the playlist tab on the atv you can play the entire playlist.

You can add through any client that allows for management of the playlist, this includes iOS (iPhone/iPad)

Unless this is a plexpass feature or I am overlooking the option to add content I don’t see the option to add content whatsoever via the ios app(s). You can mange playlist such as deleting content but everything else you had suggested I cannot locate.

you tap and hold on an item (be it episode, season, series, movie etc) then you get the option to add to playlist. And you can also add a new playlist on this screen. It’s not plexpass at the app level as I did it signed out (maybe plexpass at the server)

Yes, known - at least for the later episodes.

Connected (but even more complicated...) to the issue "auto-played episodes are not marked as watched".

The iOS app does not add playlists correctly, at least in my experience. Plexweb does a much better job adding them by season 1 list, season 2 list, etc.  
  
I take that back I may need to add them season by season to properly load them.

I have added some music videos into a playlist, but they don`t play continuously on ATV3 plexconnect. Playlist shows up and I select it to play but it plays one video and then stops. What I am doing wrong?

EDIT- Please ignore, its working now.
