Hey everybody, I wanted to let you know the new version of Skin Helper Service Widgets (1.0.37) is in the beta repo.  While Marcel has been busy, he's given me permission to continue development and push updates as needed.  Since there are a few new features I've been working on, I wanted to post a brief change log here.

Change Log:

• Similar widgets on homescreen will only choose from the last x recently watched titles, rather than any watched title. Configurable in settings (default=8).  Movies/TV shows widget only
  
• Added a setting for hiding watched items in similar widgets on homescreen (default=enabled).  Movies/TV shows widget only
  
• Completely changed the way similar movies are calculated. Every movie now gets a "similarity score" (0-100%), with contributions from genre, directors, writers, cast, rating, year, MPAA rating, and movie set.
  
• Also changes the way similar tv shows are calculated. Similarity score gets contributions from genres, studio, cast, rating, year, and TV rating.
  
• Adds new behavior for Recommended Movies/Tv Shows that can be turned on in settings. It finds all unwatched titles that are most similar to the last x recently watched titles (uses same number as above) by calculating a "recommended score". May run slower, so it's off by default
  
• Fixes issue where similar movies/shows showed result for wrong title (no longer pulls similar lists from cache)
  

If anyone has any feedback or feature requests as they relate to skinning, let me know.  For example, I could make the similarity score or recommended score available via extraproperties in a future version, like how 'similartitle' is now.
