I personally don't like this way of you show when has no cast. Of course is better than previous, and fixed the bug. You can't just skip cast when they have 0 persons? This way, in this cases the first thing will be the seasons.
Also, I noticed that only seasons have a frame for text with a smaller size. I think will show better if you put the same frame size as the others for seasons text too (and center the text on the y axis).
Another thing about this is that when we navegate into "other movies directed by", "similar", "more from 2019", etc, and stop in one of this when we go to other movie/tv show they will start in the section that we stoped before, and not in cast.

Check out TMDb plot for Steve Buscemi:



Thanks!     

@edjalmo , please check the latest from Git.  I increased the size of the bio textbox in person info, and I also made the text for the Seasons info list consistent with the other info lists in video info. 

I think I also solved the going back to the cast when you switch movies/tv shows.  Please test and let me know.  Thanks.

Thank you!

About tv show without cast, I checked again and now it show seasons, but in other time it was showing the cast space with that image you show when have a shelf without nothing. If it happend again I tell you.

The going back to cast worked here, this will not work if I back pressing "esc".

I have another suggestion and will explain the use case.
In settings we have an option to select what show in custom list and an option to show online TMDb info. I use Kodi in a RPi 3, if I enable the option to show online info I will get always a temperature alert because my Pi can't handle with the request of custom list online, so I made this disable here. However I wish to see sometimes online infos about directors or writers, but the way it are I can't. What I wish, and this is the request, is have one option in custom list to show online info, and the other option (out custom list) will work for the rest (for when I click in a director, writer, genre, etc (and if this is enable will show a pop up asking if the search will be local or online search, like is already). This way I, and other people that use low power device will not get warnings and be able to see some infos online. 
Exist too another things that is not classified, in my opinion, in none of the options, that are budgets, revenue, RT critics consensus, etc. I like things, but again Pi can't handler with much online requests (since this is less request maybe work, but don't know).

An ideia that come to my mind is have and option for TMDb online info that is something like "use as a button" (this option will came when we click in show TMDb online info). This option enable a new button in video info page (like extended info) and when we click on it in a movie will get the TMDb online info about. Directors, writers, etc, will be clickable to see online info, the same way (without clicking in extended info) if this is enable. Actually this is like it was before the new plugin.
Or may have another solution.

Hope this be a useful thing not just for me!

Another thing that I noticed is if we are in TMDb helper plugin and click "I" in one person, the page that load is in video info page style, and not in person info. 

@edjalmo, thanks for the additional feedback.

As to the issues you mention:

1. The item with the image for when a shelf is empty might appear briefly while the skin is getting the cast.  This is by design.

2. I don't know why going back to the cast would not work if you press escape (as opposed to back).  I need to investigate further to see if I can figure it out.

3.  I always request the movie or tv show detailed info from tmdb, even if the setting to show online tmdb info is enabled or not.  This allows to seamlessly show online and local info.  The custom info lists do not show online info if the setting is not enabled, and only custom info lists that can get local info are shown.  For example, crew and recommended are not shown if the setting is not enabled, and all of the other info lists get local info only if the setting is disabled.

If I understand correctly your request, you would like to see online info on writers and directors, even if the setting is not enabled.  Is this correct? If so, I can remove the check for the setting for these two fields, and you will always get a dialog asking if you want to search online or local.

Other info like budget, revenue, awards, rt critics consensus, etc. you always get, and I understand that this is not causing your Pi 3 to overheat, correct?

I will be adding back a button that works like the old Extended Info button used to work, but it will call instead script.embuary.info, with  only the info that plugin provides.  This is one of my biggest to-dos before submitting a new version to the Amber repo and Kodi repo.

4. When you are browsing the tmdbhelper plugin itself, I don't control what is shown when you press i, the plugin does.

Please confirm my understanding of your requests, so I know how to proceed.  Thanks.

Bart
