    In changelog.txt since 16-01 Frodo report this one:

    add video/graphics layers so we can easily overlay gfx over video and vice versa

    Which is the purpose of this addition?

    Could we get an official word on this and how to implement it? Does this mean we're able to have a video playing within a skin, and overlay graphics (like a progress bar) over that video? A little clarification is needed, and I have no way of taking advantage of it if I don't know what it is or how to use it :p

    As far as I know, it didnt effect fullscreen video. The most obvious problem (which is now fixed) was for example in the myTV screen, you couldnt have dialog boxes over the tv window because they would be placed under the video and be cut off.

    Also occured with the lower preview box present in the homescreen. But thats fixed now so it gives more screen space.

    You are right, the one on the repository is correct, not sure how I ended up with a different version. See attached the incorrect version I ended up with.

    MP1 MP2 recording video DE
    VLC has a browser add-on that allows you to start a video selected in your browser in VLC, you then can use its record button. Doesn't always work though, my guess is it won't on protected vids but it is the only thing I have found other than the excellent download capability of Online Videos when available.

    MP1 MP2 MP2 - V2.5 Trailer plugin DE
    Maybe the wording “plugin” is misleading, because almost every feature in MP2 is basically a plugin. This allows to even exchange core elements easily. Short: Of course it can be also a feature as part of the installer, means integrated for the user.
