Can anyone explain why Plex won’t have a favourites option when Emby has one ? Looks like people have been asking for a long time but it has just been ignored. I am not interested in playlists it’s not the same as having a favourites page. ---

I prefer plex myself I just wanted to have a favourites section I just cannot understand why it’s so hard for plex to implement. I’ve just setup a playlist but every single episode is listed in a row so to get to something I will have to scroll down and find it. If I had a favourites section I just go to the show I want. ---

Like this. You can give the Collection a Sort name like `001 Favourites` so it’s at the beginning of your Collections. ![Plex Fav 1](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/3X/f/c/fceb0b2f0ede272748862b3bc01e525cc6e0330d.jpeg) ![Plex Fav](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/3X/b/6/b6cd3ceb495f4c5d34d8eae95db659a5e9167035.jpeg) ---

You could also create a smart playlist with a filter that specifies, for example, 5 stars, then mark your favorites with 5 stars. > [@\[HowTo\] Create Playlists](https://forums.plex.tv/t/howto-create-playlists/146040): > > Please don't report problems in replies to How To posts.
