When On Kodi 16.1 and using the Titan Skin, The widgets never refreshed on their own after
Kodi was up and running. Now on Kodi 17.1 using the 3.7.59 Beta skin, every time I play a movie,
the widgets refresh again. I don't mind waiting on the Kodi initials load for the widgets to load, but
if they refresh every time I play a movie it becomes unusable for me. I have about 8 widget rows.

Widgets refresh if the database content was changed. For example when you played a movie...
It's actually a good thing because that way your widgets will always be accurate. The refresh should take no more than just a few seconds.
Can you tell me which widgets you have in your set-up that are now refreshing all at once ?

The other issue I have seen is with any dialogue box that just has an "OK" button. Example, I clear my cache
from an addon and then get a message it has been done and to press "OK". the ok should be displayed
in red due to my color scheme but it is darkened out. If I hit my Firetv back button I can return to where
I was was. I also see a spinning wheel when I get the darkened out "OK" button. I have seen this
behavior with any addon that has an "OK" button in it's dialogue.

I'm sory but I have no clue what you mean. Maybe you can make a screenshot of the issue for me to beter understand what's going on ?
