    Description

      <p>Currently there is only the chance to get detailed MI information through the CP screen, but the media Items must play to see that.</p>

      <p>We need a new Info Screen, that can be accessed also for non-playing MI. The design will be performed by Ge2301, but some code adjustments are necessary in advance.</p>

      <ol>
      <li>Add context menu&nbsp;entry (when pressing INFO with focus on a MI) "Media Item Info". Selecting this will navigate to the InfoScreen</li>
      <li>Add a setting "Show Info screen instead of directly playing media item on selection". When this is deactivated (default) the MI played as for now. When activated the InfoScreen is shown instead and the MI can be played from there via play button.</li>
      </ol>

      <p><b><u>Remark:</u></b><br>
      As far as possible CP and IS (Info Screen) should use the same code, because the content is basically same.There are only 3 differences:</p>

      <ul>
      <li>The CP screen has the PlayerImage in background, IS should have FanArt</li>
      <li>The Play Button is only visible in IS</li>
      <li>Details screen refers to the focused MI, CP screen to the playing MI --&gt; Somehow the content aspects need a MI reference in IS</li>
      </ul>

      <div data-redactor-wrapper="1" style="position: absolute; left: -9999px;">
