One thing from 1.8 that's easy to miss, because it ships switched off: there's a new look for the home screen, and you have to turn it on — Settings ▸ Home ▸ Enhanced home.

With it on, the header stays put and only the row strip below it scrolls. The background goes full screen and follows the focus: move down onto a row and the header becomes whatever card you're on — its name and details — with that card's artwork behind it. The strip shows just the focused row and pins it to the top, so the row title is always visible and you never get half of the next one creeping in. For an episode, the header is what tells you which one is waiting: series name on top, the episode below it, and the synopsis. Same idea for an album — artist on top, album underneath.

If it isn't for you, turn it off and you get the old home back exactly as it was: the featured title inside the scroll, every row on screen, and captions under the cards. Nothing else changes, so it costs you one toggle to try it.

I'd genuinely like to know which one you end up leaving on. That one isn't a bug I can find from here — it's a taste question, and the only people who can answer it are the ones looking at that screen every day.

I do leave it on ( was going to request something like this ) .

about the enhanced home , is it possible to have it pick random order from the lists ? right now it always shows the same 5 since i don't always get to the movies right away :)
