Did another pull and it works now...

Couple of things I didn't notice in a thread search:
1) The "working" icon sits on a black screen for about 15 seconds after the splash screen...a few commits back it was a much shorter wait - is this a WIP item?
2) For Main Menu items with all the sub-menu items turned off - the Sub-Menu indicator bar still shows - is there a way to have that go away if no active sub-menu items? IE: for ease of use for the wife/family - I left the Shutdown menu item active - but killed all the sub-menu items since all they need is a simple/easy to find way to exit XBMC. Not sure how much of a norm this might be, maybe I'm the only one doing this? But the logic makes sense If no sub-menu items - don't display the sub-menu indicator bar.

1) not skin-dependent, it depends on watchlist script.
2) yes, will be added I think.

EDIT: Added and pushed. Please test.

So did some Googling on the Watchlist Script - several posts and XBMC Addon page on what it does...but didn't see anything noting WHERE these "lists" are stored or how accessed? Any links to pros/cons of running this script? And exactly how would one disable this if one wanted to?

delete it. or just press escape. needed for featured panels.

On the Main Menu Customizer - I see 2 sub-menu items for MOVIES that are not disabled, but they don't show up - not sure what they do? CINEMA and RANDOM. Random sounds like it will randomly select a movie. Not sure what Cinema is? Googled and saw references to "Cinema Experience" in the 2.0 changlogs...but not sure if I'm missing out on something cool?

I really really like the new glow mode!!

As an idea, is it possible to have an infopanel during video playback if the video has been paused? Panel can have plot and poster on it...

you need script.cinema.experience and script.randommovie to make them available

no. lot of users wouldn´t want that. pressing i seems the better solution.

Red glows, showcase view, extra info on floor, and I gotta say, Kate Beckinsale looks absolutely awesome!!

Skin looks pretty good too BTW lol
