[cinema.experience] Script fails if not enough videos are in folder

[GoogleCodeExporter]

SlaveUnit reports on the XBMC forums:

Be aware that if you select 3 random videos and your folder only has 2 or 1 the 
whole script will not start up. I know this is basic, but I know there are 
idiots out there just like I was on this.

Steps to Duplicate:
1. Create folder with 2 video files in them
2. Set one of the intro or outro settings to "3 Random Videos"

System Information:
XBMC 10.0
Cinema Experience - SVN

I could not duplicate this behavior. When choosing a directory that had 
insufficient videos the script loaded successfully. The only indication that 
anything was wrong was in the log file:

We could get rid of the exception entirely by checking that items <= count, or 
we could output something more friendly in the logs in the exception handler.

Fixed the first part in r1902

r1923
Fixed showing exception if exception is because items > count - made it much 
nice and proper.

output looks like - 
[script.cinemaexperience] - Looking for 5 files, but only found 2

Kept the exception to catch other possible errors
