Couple items I saw in latest beta:
1) don't actually know what this is impacting (yet) but noticed it in the logs
2) on a whim I decided to try to create a custom widget with TV - next aired as the content and it didn't work. Now I'm not sure it even should of if it is needed since you can already add a widget with latest episodes etc - just random testing of what I can do with custom widgets so don't stress on it.

Thanks for testing. Yeah felt like adding the percentage was a good thing to do so users have a clue what is going on.
about your questions:
1) this is a small issue in the skinshortcuts script that has been fixed but not yet pushed to the repo. Now that unfledged has left us the script will be maintained in his absence by others and there will be a fix for that. For now it's safe to ignore.
2) Not all addons support the dynamic content feature. I will enhance the feature one day to only display addons that support the feature. If you realy find it helpfull I can create a skinwidget for the nextaired, that's no big deal.
I don't think a widget is high priority but if ok want pad the bottom of the todo list I won't complain. :-)
Actually with regard to the TV next aired overlay it would be nice to add support for:
Clear logos
Clear art
If they are available in addition to what is displayed or option to replace what is used in the guide
I don't know what lee-way you have with the script so it may not be possible.
I do like your clean look as you have it now
But since often clear logo and clear art is not available for all shows the placement and use of them should allows for a fallback to what you do have available.
If not possible to utilize fallbacks I would scrap adding the the option to replace / alter art used in the gride/guide since you would almost never have a clean look anyway
maybe instead have what is available placed in a logical common location (like bottom center of screen, etc) yet not detract, leave a hole, etc if they are not available.
Something additive and clean yet not cluttered
You seem to have a good eye for layouts so hopefully you can envision my ramblings :-) hehe
