Finally able to generate .m3u playlists that I can transfer and use on
another device. However, not using Erland's Playlist Generator plugin.
The Playlist Generator plugin should be banned from LMS on Windows 10 as
it locks up LMS to the point that LMS must be killed with Task Manager.

I have and use Erland's SQL Playlist / Dynamic Playlist plugins. With
the SQL Playlist plugin I use the same SQL script above to generate my
desired playlist. Set Music Limit to 500. Then in Dynamic Playlist I set
"Now Playing will show" to 500 Upcoming songs and leave "recently
played" blank. Click the "+" (plus) sign to the right of the playlist I
built in the SQL Playlist plugin which then loads the playlist into the
right frame of the WebUI and then click the "Save" icon in the bottom
right area of the WebUI. This puts the Playlist in the left hand pane
and has a box to fill in the playlist name and a Save button at the top
of the screen. Viola, I now have a .m3u playlist in my playlist
directory with all my songs of my selected BPM's and Genre's. With some
minor mass change editing to change the file locations from absolute to
relative and then I have a playlist I can transfer to my Sony Walkman to
take on my walk or run. Other than the root directory the
album/artist/songs structure are the same as on my LMS server.

A little convoluted to get there, but it's way easier than building
these type playlists manually!
