In the same vain, music album related widgets (Recently added albums etc.) only show the album name. Is there a way to include the artist name? ie. "Pink Floyd - Animals" instead of just "Animals"?

Works fine for me. You are probably doing something wrong.

Make sure your omdb key works:
http://www.omdbapi.com/?apikey=YOURAPIKEY&i=tt0078748&tomatoes=True&plot=Full&r=xml
Open that link in a new tab and replace YOURAPIKEY with your actual omdb api key then refresh the page. If your key works properly you will get details about the movie "Alien".
Also make sure you have a TheMovieDb developer api key input into metadatautils - otherwise Skin Helper will be heavily rate limited.
When you input the keys in metadatautils settings, be sure to hit "OK" in the settings dialog otherwise your settings won't save.

Am I supposed to put my OMDB key in the fanart.tv API key box? Because that's the only option I have.

My API key from OMDB works fine via your link.

In my experience i find Information better as it provides more info like show/movie ratings for Meta, TMDB, IMDB, Tomato etc along with other details like Crew, By Director, Recommendations, Similar, Trailers, Posters etc but it never loads the cast images (unless using the 'i' in the OSD during playback which brings up Information and loads cast images just fine).
  
on the other hand Openinfo always loads the cast images but also doesn't provide much details only Crew, Similar, Trailers and i think also
Posters.

I'd like to know if there is a way to get the cast images loading in Information from the context menu on a widget? which i think is the preferred solution as i feel there is a lot more missing from Openinfo (unless it's setup wrong for me) and would actually like to not have it show in the context menu since Information is better?

OpenInfo is an unofficial, unsupported fork of ExtendedInfo Script. This skin has recently changed away from EIS, in favor of jurialmunkey's own TMDb helper addon, and it is working much better at this point.

Cast and crew images are either scraped by the library scraper if your choice, or supplied by an add-on. If they're not showing, they're not available.
