+ <p>Playlists allow you to create and save a list of music tracks to be played
+ in a specific order. Playlists are convenient to create a list of your
+ favorite songs or to split your library into smaller lists that are easy
+ to browse through. Some portable media players even allow you to transfer the
+ playlist so you can take it with you on the go.
</p>
+
+ <p>Banshee supports normal playlists which are songs you add and manage to the
+ playlist as well as smart playlists. Smart Playlists are automatically
+ generated playlists based on your listening habits, favorite music or more.

+ <title>Normal Playlists</title>
+
+ <p>A normal playlist is a list of songs that you add and manage. You might
+ want to create your own list of songs by your favorite artist from
+ multiple albums, your latest favorite songs or an upbeat playlist to listen
+ to while you exercise.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>You can create a new playlist by pressing <keyseq><key>Control</key>
+ <key>N</key></keyseq>, from the menu choosing <guiseq><gui>Menu</gui>
+ <gui>New Playlist</gui></guiseq> or by selecing the track(s) you would like
+ to add to the playlist. Select the track(s) and right click them and choose
+ <guiseq><gui>Add to Playlist</gui><gui>New Playlist</gui></guiseq>.
+ You can also drag and drop them to a new playlist by selcting the track(s)
+ and dragging them to the left hand
+ window pane over <gui>Music</gui>. As you drag it over <gui>Music</gui>
+ a new option <gui><em>New Playlist</em></gui> will appear and you can drop
+ the track(s) over <gui><em>New Playlist</em></gui> to add them to the
+ playlist. You can repeat this process until you have added all the tracks
+ you want in the playlist.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>To give your playlist its own name, select the playlist and right click
+ on the playlist and press <gui>Rename Playlist</gui> and enter the name
+ of your playlist.
+ </p>
+
+ <note>
+ <p>You can not re-order a playlist. As you add songs to the playlist,
+ they will played in the order in which you added them to the playlist.</p>
+ </note>
+
+ <p>To remove a track from the playlist, select the track(s) you wish to
+ remove. Press the <key>Delete</key>, from the menu choose
+ <guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>Remove from Playlist</gui></guiseq> or right
