Indeed there is. Beatmasterrs' Arctic Zephyr - Leia Mod has this feature included. I think you can find it in the includes.xml under "DialogPvrInfoNavigationNew". 

Thanks! These instructions are really helpful.

Can you please test latest version 0.9.36-a4 and confirm that I've added the correct button.

To be honest I have to say that I found the latest TV osd quite crowded on the screen.
The first version where there was only a row of channel logo's and one channel focused visible was so perfect on screen.
Could you please make that an user option?

Also the description always showing could be optional.
Especially when skipping back/forward. The programme description is not needed at that moment imho.
So in short I liked the former version more.

Also, I like these views from Andromeda:
 
Works with banners and cd covers too

This overview of the actors is nice too



Would something like these fit in your design philosophy?

For the Sets/Collections info page: can you create a [Request] on the github issues page?
I use the issues page as my todo list and I'm slowing working my way through it.
https://github.com/jurialmunkey/skin.arctic.zephyr.2/issues

For the poster list view: I will probably be adding some sort of poster/episode list view at some stage. Additional views are not really priority at the moment though!

For cast list: I actually wanted to have a double column or row type display, but unfortunately there isn't any way to override control of a panel so that I can link to extended info. It needs to be single row or column list to do that.

You can already use it. Change your key binding to the following action:
ActivateWindow(1139)

You can also access it by pressing up from the osd controls.

Some more options for PVR such as showing plot/next/nothing alongside the channel will be coming soon.

Great skin. I've been using Fuse and noticed something strange after I installed the Alpha of AZ2 on my Shield. I was using the combination below to keep the song info/album cover/lyrics onscreen when playing music. It seemed to work right in AZ2 in Windows but after installing on the Shield I only see the fullscreen music for a split second before AZ2 returns to the playlist screen (unless I manually toggle to fullscreen mode.)

<songinfoduration>6000</songinfoduration> added to advancedsettings.xml in the userdata folder

Created new Custom_FullScreenMusic.xml with the following content:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<window type="dialog" id="1199">
    <allowoverlay>no</allowoverlay>
    <onload condition="!Window.IsActive(visualisation)">FullScreen</onload>
    <visible>Player.HasAudio + !Integer.IsEqual(MusicPlayer.Time,0)</visible>
    <controls />
</window>

I'm thinking maybe an id conflict preventing this custom page to take over? Is there a setting in AZ2 that this code conflicts with?

There is a custom window ("Custom_Overlay.xml") with the id 1199 already.

I'm not really sure why you are doing this though as there is already a setting in the skin for Auto Music Vis:
Skin Settings > Video / Music > Automatically open visualisation after starting a song.

You can see what this setting does in this window (which is practically the same as what you are trying to do)

As a long time pvr user, one issue you’ve solved for me - in the osd at least - is the duplication of programme synopsis within the programme title field, an unfortunate side effect of using OTA grabbers with the current stable version of tvheadend. Thank you! I’m hoping it’s possible to carry the separation of the two fields over into the main pvr guide.
Also, are you planning to offer an option to substitute the information section - currently always displayed on the right of the osd - with the upcoming programme instead?
Taking this one step further, is it technically possible to scroll through upcoming programmes on a particular channel via the osd (a la sky) and press ‘i’ on upcoming programmes to display programme information? If so, I’d love to see this happen, requiring the user to manually select programme information as and when needed, rather than always being on display (which is a nice idea but slightly detracts from the aesthetic in my opinion).

A random request...could lists in local media (e.g media info 2) start scrolling from the middle rather than the bottom, allowing my eyes to remain in the middle of the screen (for the majority of the time) when scrolling through my library.

Thanks again for the amazing work, and hope this is useful feedback regardless of whether you choose to implement any of this.

I use tvheadend myself and I don't experience this double-up issue - but I guess it depends on country/region (or maybe settings). I have had other users report this issue though. I have an idea for a fix, so I'll look into it.

For osd showing next programme info, this is already possible (and you can also scroll through). You need to bind a button/key to
ActivateWindow(pvrchannelguide)
By default, this is bound to the "G" key on keyboard.

Just noticed that episode info not showing next to the episode thumbnail (all my media info is scraped from local *. nfo file). Is this a known issue?

Works fine for me. You mustn't have a plot field filled.

I have a young child too and it would be nice if she does not have to see 16+ or 18+ movieposters at the homescreen. Ideally it could be time restricted. I.e. before 20:00 / 8PM only posters that are suited for children.
If possible we could just set the age limit, or if that is not enough for the information scrapers, combine it with a rating system like MPAA's movie rating; USK (Germany); Kijkwijzer (Netherlands); PEGI (European system for game content) etc.
Another option would be to select it by genre; let's say "only animation movie posters" before 8 o'clock. Only thing is, that not all animation movies are for children, but most inappropriate movies/posters will be filtered out then.

I had the same issue, there's a workaround with smartplaylists. With Tinymediamanager add a 18+/adult or an appropriate tag for those you don't want to show up(can bulk edit). Then make a smartplaylist that tag>doesn't contain. Use this Smartplaylist as the menu content and also for the widget content. Hope this helps you.

Thanks!
So, I could also add a tag containing my daughters name for example, or something like "suited for children" and set the smart playlist to only display those. (So a "yes-filter" instead of a "no-filter"). Could this be time triggered too? I.e. in the morning and afternoon only filtered ones and in the evening and night all movies.

Ah, interesting that you’re not affected by this double-up issue. It’s a known issue in the uk using Freeview OTA grabbers and DVB-T tuners with tvheadend. Really appreciate you offering to take a look at this. Not expecting miracles though!

I had no idea the pvrchannelguide view existed...great that it lets you scroll though upcoming programmes. Can I ask why this functionality isn’t implemented in the default osd rather than having to access a separate window? Would love to see this (without the column of channel icons), retaining the minimalist feel.

I also noticed it’s not possible to access information on a programme that’s up next (on a different channel to the one I’m watching) using pvrchannelguide. That would be really useful if technically possible. Thanks.
