I'm am sorry to hear that because more people may want to use cmc when Brian deprecates WMC in the up and coming upgrade for mymovies

Hey Jamie, thanks for testing this. At least it is consistently broken.

Re: [Fixed, Version TBD] Movies screensaver not starting

This is fixed in the next version. It was as I expected, a bug related to the new Category based parental restrictions. It was actually a bug I dealt with in the earlier betas, but I only fixed it in the main covers display, and forgot to fix it in the screensaver code.

The next version is yet to be determined. It will either be 6.1 or 7.0. If it's 7.0, I would typically target a Halloween release, but there will be betas long before then, and I might just release it early for once.
