Is there any progress in fixing an issue with Mood in Plex Premium Music where a user could create a mood playlist with more than one mood characteristic? (e.g.: happy, powerful) Users used to be able to do this and then with the new interface, things changed. Anyone on the Plex Team or Support who can provide thoughts, that would be great. Thank you.
I can still do this. Keep in mind that moods are at the album level. So from the music library
Albums -> filter icon -> moods -> select your moods and hit close -> Save As Smart Playlist
I will try this. Thank you so much. I’ve been wanting this feature but couldn’t get around it. You can select multiple moods? Thank you in advance.
Not sure which app you’re using, but Plex Web can’t do this. If Album Mood and Track Mood were added to the Custom Filters, it could.
Therefore, at this time, users cannot create a mood playlist as I thought and researched in the first place?
It’s been a feature lost since they went to the new interface.
It doesn’t appear you could do it on any application for Plex?
Perhaps it’s a feature coming later, @anon18523487 is a Team Member assuming he works for Plex he could do it but members cannot yet.
I never paid much attention to moods, since my first few attempts had some pretty strange results (“happy” mood picked some very sad songs, for example), so my memory may not be accurate. But I do seem to remember that we had the ability to pick multiple moods at one time, and it was lost when the filters were re-designed (and Custom Filters were added). All that needs to be done is what I said before, add “Album Mood” and “Track Mood” to the Custom Filters. Then you could mix moods to your heart’s content. I’m not aware of any current app that lets you do this.
Thank you for the information.
Oh. for some reason I thought you were asking about the Android app.
With Web you can filter 1 mood then generate a playlist, but you can’t have multiple moods.
Sorry for the confusion. I got confused by the “new interface” comment. The last significant change to Web was quite some time ago.
Is there any chance that Plex could work on putting this feature back? You used to be able to make multiple mood playlists because the new interface.
There is work going on to add more filters. I don’t have any details on what or when this will be available.
Thank you because with Plex and Alexa and more ways to make playlists, adding Moods with more filters could help more people use the product. Food for thought.
