[RELEASE] Nostalgia Channel - Play Random Nostalgia TV Show Episode - flxfxp - 2012-07-11

I'm a sucker for old TV Shows, but I was missing an option randomly play these. Inspired by this script, I've took my first steps into making an addon in 30 mins. This addon loads a playlist called "Nostalgia" and will start randomly play content from it. I thought this was easier than defining play directories, plus it allows you to quickly add/remove content.

Instructions:
  1. Download addon from BitBucket
  2. Put script.nostalgiachannel in your addons directory
  3. Create a playlist called "Nostalgia.m3u" and put it in special://profile/playlists/video/
  4. Optionally add the addon to the home screen

This is the first addon I've made, so let me know what you think.
Download here: Nostalgia Channel on BitBucket

Postscriptum: I noticed it doesn't fully pick episodes by random on Windows, it always starts the same first random episode. If anyone know how to fix this, holler!

Shit, this should probably be under video addons. Edit: thanks!
