When using My Movies with Windows Media Center on Windows 7, movie covers would be on the screen along with the movie description on the right hand side. With Chameleon, the screen is filled with movie covers, but there is a "pop out" that shows the description. The timing can be changed for that from 1 to many seconds.

It would be less distracting (to my eyes) if the description was "always" out there. I know it would cover up the movies or TV shows on the right hand side. I have played with the amount of seconds. Tried it at 1 second and it was just too quick. Tried it at 5, 7 and 8 seconds...and just waited.

I suppose the easiest way to do this would be to make a "0" second option. The other would be to have the description area on the right permanently, although it would look better if it didn't look like it was sitting on top of other movies.

Thanks for considering this.

Hi Dan,

Thanks for suggesting this, I think it is a good idea, and hopefully fairly easy to implement. My only concern at this moment is that the details pop-up might steal focus away from certain mouse clicks, particularly the top icon and mode bars, so this might require some extra development. But for use with a keyboard or remote, I think this will be a non-issue.

I've added this to the roadmap.

Thanks,
Paul
