šŸ‘ It would be awesome to be able to download playlists ofline and have them synced automagically when they are updated on your kodi or in yatse. Great job already ! Thanks. ---

This sounds like a great feature request! Love all the list. i would definitely love to be able to download offline a playlist from emby or kodi on demand. Smart playlist support that syncs with kodi or emby also sounds awesome! ---

> Improve support for playlist globally It will be be awesome to have this working! Unfortunately smarts playlist on kodi are just for kodi, canā€™t work with other music players, would be perfect to have Yatse reading and playing smart playlists offline o in local player mode Iā€™m quite anxious to see this working! Thanks a lot! ---

Yatse will never be able to get your smart playlist configuration as Kodi does not allows that, only content. But Yatse have smart filters that you can save / load and play locally that offers the same functions or even more in some cases šŸ™‚ [![](https://community.yatse.tv/uploads/default/original/2X/5/59a51db577d2424fd03587043813241dab85e39b.jpeg "Yatse: Smart filters") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXDt9RW7bog) ---

Thanks @Tolriq, I understand it canā€™t be done because of Kodiā€™s limitations to share only content and not configuration yet the smart filters works well, but I was thinking about having music playlist, and itā€™s a bummer to configure it in Kodi and in Yatse every time you add a song or maybe I donā€™t use it in an efficient way. Thanks for your work ! ---

Looks good but still missing filter for ā€œcommentsā€ field, is very useful in mp3 files to sort and filter by the comments field. Is there any way to implement that? ---

Still in the plans but Kodi is slowing down that ā˜¹ With Kodi 18 soon out and fixing some of the issues (probably at the expense of adding a tons more ;)) I will probably increase priority. ---

Please do the import plex playlist thing. Itā€™s the only thing yatse needs to be perfect. ---

As we discussed [here](https://community.yatse.tv/t/tasker-and-emby-server-how-to-play-playlist-or-exact-album-on-remote-dlna/2662) please consider to add support to play playlists in Emby and Kodi by voice commands. ---

Hi, I canā€™t quite tell if it is possible to see and play playlists created in emby through yatse based in the replies in here. I believe it is not possible yet, but want to confirm, and of so, voice my vote to have them added. Thanks! ---

@feerlessleadr itā€™s possible to import and sync them already. ---

Thanks @Tolriq Iā€™m not sure what Iā€™m doing wrong then. When in my music section in emby, my emby playlists are not showing up. When I click the plus sign and hit import, nothing happens, it just says ā€œImportā€ but nothing else pops up that I can click. Is there a different process for importing? ---

Thanks @Tolriq, apologies for not following that straight away.

Issue description: First off, just want to say thanks for this application, it works really well. I just discovered that I could use this with emby, and it is working out great for listening to my music via emby. My only issue so far is that my emby playlists donā€™t seem to be populating in yatse, either automatically, or through import. I am able to create smart playlists directly in yatse,ā€¦ ---

I just came here after long time to ask something like this.

I support this enhancement, but i donā€™t understand why the syncing of playlists in kodi is not able to be implemented? I donā€™t want to recreate already existing playlists in kodi on my mobile device. I donā€™t know how exactly Yatse works, but i imagine at some point it has to do with JSON calls to the Kodi api, if thatā€™s the case, the there is support for getting playlists in kodi. Can someone please explain why this is not possible, from my perspective , it should be possible. Iā€™ve included a link to Kodiā€™s JSON calls, see ā€œplaylistsā€ [https://kodi.wiki/view/JSON-RPC\_API/v12#Playlist.GetItems](https://kodi.wiki/view/JSON-RPC_API/v12#Playlist.GetItems) ---

Because itā€™s only one way and it does not return the proper data in many many cases. Without the ids returned I canā€™t match things up. [Next page](https://community.yatse.tv/t/add-support-for-playlists/87.md?page=2)
