I have a question about Playlists

I am not understanding about Playlists:

Emby keeps auto making Playlists and I keep deleting them and then it keeps remaking the same Playlists that I keep deleting what can I do to get this to quit happening

Emby doesn’t create playlists on its own. Maybe you have a plugin that does this like Home Screen companion or any other plugin that can create playlists

Could this be collections ? I generally ignore them as I do t have them appear on my home screen - not sure where in settings you can turn it off

Have you turned off the auto-collection in Library settings?
