hmm, sound like my world right now Bob, which isn't helping right now!

I know the process of tracking down errors can be an absolute nightmare If there are any in particular that I can assist with, do let me know.

Ok guys thanks for taking the time to study my log, but I think the best thing for me to do right now is a fresh install of everything (not only the skin), as it will save some time for everybody (I think).

If you can hang on till this evening, I took another look over your log and did notice one thing - when playing the intro video, your home.xml de-inits before re-init'ing. Now, this can lead to disappearing widgets - if the widgets were loading when the window de-init'ed, Kodi won't try loading them again until the URI changes. It's a problem I've come across and fixed in my own skin, and can code up the fix for MadNox this evening if you're willing to try it (and the git version of skin shortcuts.) It may not make a difference in your case, but it certainly can't hurt

(Otherwise I'll code up and PR the solution when script.skinshortcuts is next updated on the repo)
