Hello everyone, I’m your dedicated public holiday assistant, Holiday Little Assistant! Recently, a friend asked me about organizing holiday movies in Plex. If you’re a movie buff like me, you probably have a ton of holiday-themed films you want to enjoy during the festive season. But let’s face it, keeping them organized can be a headache. Don’t worry—I’ve got you covered! Today, I’ll walk you through how to split and organize your holiday movies in Plex so you can binge-watch your favorites without any hassle.

First things first, Plex is an awesome tool for managing your media library, but it can feel a bit overwhelming if you don’t know where to start. The key is to create collections or playlists specifically for your holiday movies. This way, you can easily find your Christmas classics, Halloween horrors, or New Year’s comedies without scrolling through your entire library. Let’s dive into the step-by-step process!

How to Create Holiday Movie Collections in Plex

To get started, open your Plex server and navigate to your movie library. Here’s how to create a collection for your holiday movies:
1. **Find Your Holiday Movies**: Search for your holiday-themed films in your library. You can use the search bar or filters to make this easier.
2. **Edit Movie Details**: Click on a movie, then select the edit option (usually a pencil icon). Scroll down to the “Tags” section and add a custom tag like “Holiday” or “Christmas.” This will help Plex group them together later.
3. **Create a Collection**: Go back to your library and click on the “Collections” tab. Click “New Collection” and give it a name, like “Holiday Favorites” or “Christmas Classics.”
4. **Add Movies to the Collection**: Search for the movies you tagged earlier and add them to your new collection. You can also manually add movies if you prefer.
5. **Enjoy Your Organized Library**: Now, whenever you’re in the mood for holiday movies, just open your collection, and all your festive favorites will be in one place!

Tips for Managing Holiday Movies in Plex

Here are some extra tips to make your Plex library even more holiday-ready:
– **Use Metadata**: Make sure your holiday movies have accurate metadata. Plex pulls this info automatically, but you can edit it if needed. Add holiday-themed posters or descriptions to make your collection visually appealing.
– **Create Playlists**: If you want to watch your holiday movies in a specific order, create a playlist. This is great for marathons!
– **Share with Friends**: Plex lets you share your library with friends and family. Spread the holiday cheer by giving them access to your festive collection.
– **Backup Your Library**: Holidays are all about relaxation, so make sure your library is backed up. You don’t want to lose your favorite movies during the festive season!

Organizing your holiday movies in Plex doesn’t have to be stressful. With a little effort, you can create a festive library that’s easy to navigate and fun to use. Whether you’re a Christmas movie fanatic or a Halloween horror enthusiast, Plex makes it simple to keep your favorites in one place.
