Detailed info in Video Library

So, here's what I would like to do.

I would like to leave the library set up like the default library except have the ablility to have a description of each video that shows up on the detailed info screen. (such as a text file of the same name, for example, video1.avi video1.txt.)

I would also like it when selecting a video if it would jump to the detailed info with a "Watch Now" option, like in the "Jump Directly to Detailed Info" STVI (http://forums.sagetv.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16050)

Is there a way to add detailed info like there is a way to add a thumbnail built in to SageTV?

Or, if not, is there an stvi that comes close to this? I'm not looking to change the appearance, just add the info and change it to jump directly to detailed info.

I use Gregerm's STV which creates a .my file of every recording that does exactly that. I can also create a .my file for the ones that do not have it or from my dvd conversions.
the same filename with a .my extension in the same folder.

Yes, GermSage does do what I need it to do. I have tried it in the past, however I do not like it because the one visual modifcation it makes, the font on the OSD Info smaller. (The text that tells you what the currently playing show is about). This makes the text very difficult to read on a 30 inch television from sitting across the room on the couch.

In additon to that, it does not jump to detailed info when clicking ok on a video in the library.

If someone could point me to the correct location in Studio I could make the font back to the default size.

All then I would need would is an stvi or instructions on how to make clicking ok go directly to the detailed info screen in studio.

I can probably add that to the import. I thought I got that in there but maybe I was thinking of the archive videos section... Maybe if I have some time I'll add that...

No promises though...
