+ <p>To create a new Smart Playlist, from the menu choose <guiseq>
+ <gui>Media</gui><gui>New Smart Playlist</gui></guiseq>. You will be
+ presented with a dialog to create a new Smart Playlist. Enter
+ the name of your playlist and then choose the criteria your playlist
+ should be based on. You can choose from any field included in the song's
+ meatadata, such as Album, Artist or Year. Choose the criteria and then
+ choose from one of the following:

+ </list>
+
+ <p>You can also press the <gui>+</gui> button to add an addition query
+ to the Smart Playlist. For example, you could create a smart playlist
+ that includes all songs from 2010 that you rated 5 stars. To create this
+ playlist you would choose:
+
+ <table frame="all" rules="rows" shade="rows">
+ <tr>
+ <td><p><gui>Year</gui></p></td> <p><gui>is</gui></p></td>
+ <td><p><gui>2010</gui></p></td>

+ <td><p><gui></gui>5 stars</p></td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+
+ <p>You can then optionally select how many songs are included by pressing
+ the <gui>Limit</gui> to checkbox and choosing the number of songs to be
+ included.

+ <p>Banshee also includes smart playlist already created for
+ you. You press the <gui>Open in editor</gui> button to view how the playlist
