Is there a way to automatically create a playlist of more than 2 shows in broadcast order.

For instance, shows like Stargate (or I think Arrow/Flash/Supergirl) have alternating episodes. I really don't want to do it by hand; my Stargate playlist will have over 300 items.

I would look into QuasiTv for this, I haven't done it myself but it has some really cool stuff you can do like making a dedicated cartoon Network channel or just making channels based off of broadcasting stations of what content you have.

Is this a plex based thing? or a totally different media server solution?

It's own media that uses Plex as the source material, from to tutorials I've watch it's very versatile. I found it because I was looking into a more traditional style app for my TV as I was missing the nostalgia of normal TV channels with their own programming.
