I’m looking for the ability to have a playlist that can be created on the client side (any user) where you add shows (not episodes) for that user only. What this playlist will do is: either randomly select a show from the client created list or sequentially get the next show in your playlist play …

I suppose you’re describing something like this? [image] Shuffle SHOWS, not episodes when using the Library shuffle function Feature Suggestions Plex TV Library has a shuffle option, but it just shuffles every episode randomly. This is chaos when you have shows like Lost …

Kind of, except for a client, not server list? So children or spouse can create their own lists of accessible shows/movies. I do not see that option in any client, yet to create and add to playlist.

There’s no client/server side lists… they’re all just lists. Users can create their own playlists… just not covering the given suggestion.
