When cursor is moved, title shows up.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Problem installing Bleazlewide using standard install. When I copied over files manually from the Zip file, it worked fine.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Wrong movie details appear for sub-account when on detail screen. Details are for the movie for the main account in the same position in the queue. Fan art and movie title are correct, however.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Extra comma at end of lists (e.g., actors list, genre list). Very minor, obviously. Maybe this is how it comes from Netflix servers?</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">In Rental history, quite a few movies are listed twice.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">When sub-account selected, and DVD Queue selected (to update list), Rental History, Recommendations, At Home, and Ratings is still showing results for main account.</li> </ul>I have a feeling some of the issues concerning the sub-account stuff may be due to limitations with the Netflix API, but I thought I'd mention them just in case.I also have a couple of suggestions:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Play Button prominently on the details screen, which is selected by default when opening details.  This is a WAF feature, to make it perfectly obvious that pressing select at this point starts the movie.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Larger font for movie title in upper right. Couldn't figure out how to do this in the XML's <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> .</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Let user edit the name of the plugin on the main menu (e.g. Netflix -> My Netflix, or whatever).</li> </ul>These may only make sense for the BleazleWide skin, or not, I don't use any others so I'm not sure it's relevant to anyone else.I also have a couple files I've modified, in case Wile E or anyone else is interested.  I've modified the main list view and the details view to eliminate scrolling (man, I hate scrolling, lol).  I also created the XML file the BleazleWide skin needs in order to show the green highlight bar in the menu. The files are attached below, as well as some screenshots showing what they look like in action.Thanks again, Wile E, for all your hard work.  Hope my input is helpful.</blockquote>
