Yeah, having a reasonable movie library often means we can't actually decide what to watch. So having a feature that decides for us is great.
Indeed, getting this node to initiate auto-play once it has been selected does not seem possible. I searched high and low to see if I was missing something. I'm guessing, something would probably need to be changed in Kodi core to enable this kind of functionality, maybe even a brand new 'Surprise Me' node with auto playback being made available to users? I'm not sure where the best place to make such a suggestion would be?
I could most likely achieve what I want by doing away with the default movie categories and creating my own custom categories to also include a new 'Surprise Me' button option using the Playmedia action for that particular button, but would require a fair amount of effort. I'll continue to badger away anyway for any easier solutions I might discover......
Cheers
