fair enough - I was trying out the shednox skin. Thanks for the quick reply.

If the list(s) are called from a window (PlayerControls.xml in my case), the parent window/dialog is stays visible/open after you click on an item except if a video starts to play. Is it possible before all the list's onclick actions to close the parent window/dialog with some kind of "PreviousMenu" action ?.yeah, known and a bit tricky. I think Kodi does not handle python dialogs correctly (I got some weird zorder stuff several times during developing) and I don´t feel that well with using workarounds for this (for example because I also had issues with Dialog.Close(all) in the last years.) Need to have a proper look into this issue again first.

This forces skinner's to skin more windows in order to keep their skin consistency. Is it possible to change this to the old behaviour to a YouTube search as default and have the infodialog optional ?.I could add an option to switch to youtube search for TV, but I want to have the InfoDialog as default for both TV and movies. That probably won´t change.
I know that is a nice future to have and many people like as much as possible more information but also there are many others that they think that "less is more", plus that skinners won't be forced to code more stuff if they don't want to.

Adding an option will not be useful since it will need user interaction if is not as default. I guess i will have to go back to properties way again
