I've been trying to create a 'Surprise Me' node for my movie library collection for a while that when selected will immediately start playback of a random movie from my collection. I would like to be able to add this node to the others in my movie categories. I can achieve this exact behaviour by creating a playlist and adding it as favourite to home menu, but if I try to create the same thing as a video node, a 2nd view window always opens with my random movie, ie the movie does not start playing automatically when the node is selected.
More details here of what I've done:- https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid...pid2845289
Is there any suggestions you might have to triggering automatic playback of a single random movie when the the video node is selected?
