This is an absolutely brilliant piece of work... many thanks!
One suggestion:
When the "Trailer Play Mode" is set to Download, could the downloads happen at the very start of the script, before the trivia starts? Or even in the background while the trivia is playing (if trivia is enabled)? I know that means a delay before things get under way, but my Internet connection isn't the greatest, and I hate waiting for stuff to load at the start of each clip (my quality setting is 480p)... would rather it all load at the beginning. Maybe a dialog box with a percentage bar as each trailer loads could be displayed?
Hmmm... that's strange-in my playing around, I noticed that my system seems to now behave identical whether I've set the play mode to Download or Stream-it seems to always stream. Never used to do that, as before there would be a pause before each trailer started while it loaded.
Oh one other thing while I'm here... when I start the script using the icon in the Info screen (using Transparency!), I notice while the script is starting and XBMC returns back to the movie selection screen, the selection jumps down one movie. Not that it's a big deal-just thought I'd mention it in case I'm the only one this happens to.
