As for your Weather question, not sure it's possible - I don't think there's anything in settings or advancedsettings that do that, and I don't think the refresh is triggered by the skin (but I'll check).
Pat, here's the response from the Cinema Experience developer about playing the script in a preview window:

The script is more or less a playlist builder and the command for starting the playback(in python) also has an optional window mode. I'm still working on the script for pre-eden changes and dharma integration. But if the user wants this ability now, they can change line 212 in file xbmcscript_trivia.py from:
Code:xbmc.Player().play( self.playlist )
to
Code:xbmc.Player().play( item=self.playlist, windowed=True )
Though I haven't tested it, the documentation says it should do the job.
I think this means we'll need to leave it for the moment because I'm not going to skin something that will only work for people who've customised the addon. I've asked for the preview option to be coded into the next release of the addon and, if it's done, I'll incorporate into the skin.
