@VonMagnum , please try the latest from GitHub, I have added a first approach to your request. You will need to install script.playrandomvideos, which is available in the Kodi repo for Matrix, under Context Menu addons.
I added a "Play Random" button to the sideblade, which looks like this:
This button will play a single, random, unwatched episode from the TV show that is highlighted. If you open the tv show, and highlight a season, the sideblade button will play a single, random, unwatched episode from that season of the tv show. If you highlight "all seasons", then the button plays a random episode from the whole tv show.
If you want to play a random episode taken from all of your tv shows, you can go to the Videos main menu item, select the Titles submenu, and then highlight TV Shows, open the sideblade and click on "Play Random".
It is interesting to note that the button also works for movies and music videos (concerts). For example, you can go to Movies, Genres, highlight any genre, open the sideblade dn click on "Play Random' to play a random movie of that genre. The same would apply to Years, Actors, Directors, Countries, Studio, Tag, etc.
Are you interested in me coding an option that you can add as a menu item, or submenu item, that will play a single, random episode from all of your tv shows? Please confirm. Thanks.
Regards,
Bart
