Preshow Entertainment (Shorts)

[japes 24]

Since I've mentioned that there was one thing I'd like to see other than trivia slide multiple folder selections I figured I should post about it. For our family movie nights we have a routine...During trivia slides my son sets up the TV trays, then he settles in and watches a couple shorts (Classic 7 min Disney, Yogi Bear, Tom and Jerry...etc) while my wife and I finish up dinner.  The way I have my system set up is that I have two seperate directories for animated shows and these shorts.  They are all scanned into my library.

such as...

Animated Shows\Ultimate Spider-man

Animated Shows\Justice League

Animated Shorts\Disney Classic

Animated Shorts\Superman (1940)

 

I tried setting directory to Animated Shorts and 2 random but I get nothing unless I set the directory to Disney Classic and 2 random.  But then I get two Disney shorts only.  I'd like if you could do a directory node that would scan recursive from the target directory as my default family setup.
