I have another suggestion for the Genre. You don't have to remove it, but will you consider relocating it to the bottom where all the other Information is? Take a look at the picture I attached. All other information is at the bottom, so why is only Genre and Director at the top?

If you move Genre to the bottom, it will still be accessible when you choose to go down to that section. I think this is a fair suggestion and will keep Genre hidden until the person wants to go down there to access all the information. Will you consider this?

I get where you're coming from, but how often is this really an issue?  Very few movies even attempt to do a genre switch during them.  It's really no more of a spoiler than who is in the cast (which can certainly spoil cameos and such).  It sounds like you want absolutely no information except the title, which seems like a really edge case as far as user preference goes.  I think it's safe to say that most of us here prefer getting what information we can with as few clicks as necessary.

At this place is normaly the cast/actors list with pictures. Your scraper does not collect all informations. What you call "All other informations" is hidden by default:

That's exactly my point... Default view shows the actors. And that is perfect. If you want more information you can scroll down for all the information. So why is Genre and Director at the top? It should also be hidden by default at the bottom, with all the other information.

Only for TV Shows and therefore for episodes. Not for movies in this skin. And again, if I'm going to watch a new movie in cinema it's not as bad to get some info instead of (good or bad) surprises. But thats my point of view.

Yes, this affects all occurences of ListItem.Genre. You have to search for it in all files of the xml folder of the skin. But as I've already said, this will be overwritten with the next update o fthe skin.

The option to "hide plot" is not only for TV Shows. It is also for movies. And I don't think you are getting the point here. I am not saying you shouldn't get some info before watching a movie. I am saying that the Genre can sometimes give away too much info. And the ability to hide it is a good option to have to avoid any potential spoilers.

And yes, I am aware that it will be overwritten with the next update. But I don't have any other options, right? I just have to do it again every time. And that's the reason why I am wishing you can consider giving us the option to disable Genre as well.
