Not sure about all your points, but #5, I would like to mention I have that issue constantly, on 2 different setups. That is, nothing responds except backspace, and it is so annoying. I think it happens when the view looses control (maybe something in the background) then never regains focus after whatever occurs in the background but I also notice if I scroll too fast through the options (menu or shown videos/tvshows) it occurs as well. I've learnt to scroll more slowly and I don't get the issue.

So you're saying this isn't a skin issue then? If not that's ok, I'm just simply trying to achieve a visible glitch free build (yes, i know this maybe a laughable goal with the time frame that new versions are pushed out, but it's what I'm aiming for)
Any help with the other issues, that I'm pretty certain are skin issues is appreciated.
Is the disc art animation broken for anyone else like this? Or the logos in the upper left corner of the wall view?

Hi @Shredder_guitar 

Yes, I prefer a perfect experience too.

I have only experienced your issue #5 with this skin. I did not experience it with MQ7 or other skins, so, I am saying "it is" a skin issue. But, I don't think any work is being done on the base MQ8, apart from the excellent work that @latts9923 is putting into the mods. 

One issue I had, I was told could not be done (have the main menu like MQ7). Well, it can, but I did it myself.. Modded the mod so to speak. Maybe you might have to delve into the code (all xml) to fix issues you are having.

I also did not experience it with the backspace issue with the MQ7 mod. What did you alter to to make the main menu centered? I would prefer this also, but it wasn't a priority to me as it was not broken. I agree that this is a pretty great mod skin, probably the most elaborate I've seen which is why it's become important to me to sort out all issues with it for longevity.

Are there resources that i can better understand the the makeup of how the skin code is structured and where and what items need to be changed? ...and please don't say the kodi wiki...i've referenced it for some things...but overall is pretty useless for my situation.
