    Allow Users to Create thier own Play Lists (aka Binge Lists), for real! (Auto Play)

    I know we can create Lists on VUDU, but this is NOT an actual Play List. Items added to a List will not Auto Play (watch the first one and the 2nd one does not start Automatically, etc.). You still have to Watch them individually.

    What I would rather have is the ability to create true Play Lists.

    Rather than burden VUDU servers with the saved data, instead, read / save these Play Lists on the Customers device.

    Addtionally, allow us to not only add a TV Season or a Mov ie -- but to add individual TV Episodes and Movie bonus Features, as well.

    For example, I could make a Play List for just "Behind the Scenes" stuff, by adding only Movie / TV Bonus Features to that list.

    If I wanted to watch a Franchise set of Movies, i.e. Marvel Movies, I could add them to a Play List, in order, and then watch them all in proiper sequence.

    If I wanted to watch what I think is the 'best of' a long runnign TV Show, I could add those individual episodes to a Play List and watch only those episodes, rather than entite seasons.

    Once a Play List is created, the order can be adjusted, items can be added / removed, and the sequence with "Auto Play" in the order that is set up by the Customer.

    It can even remember their progress and start at the point they left off, next time.

    MAKE THIS HAPPPEN!

    (I use the Roku App.)

    +1 on the ability to enter Autoplay mode for a given list -- though I'm not sure how it would be best implemented. Perhaps any time I click 'Play' for a title within the list view? Or perhaps just having a list-specific Autoplay toggle within the [Manage List] menu.

    [Manage List] :: Autoplay ::
    • Disabled
    • Once
    • Always
    (Maybe also provide options for Continual and Shuffle?)

    One tough bit to address is how to handle TV episodes in a list*. Should the Autoplay continue with the next episode within the TV series or the next thumbnail within the list? (My vote is it should be based on the context when playback was initiated.)

    * p.s. Re: adding TV episodes and featurettes to a list, it's already possible. See the following post and example image:
