Yes the right half of the screen aren't used but insted of puting menus
there put a help system there insted. That change it contens depending
on what entry are marked on the left half. Eg If DVD-plugin are makred
then in the right half a short description of what this plugin can and
what the navigation-keys are.

A helpsystem like this should be on every page. And a special of when in
cuting recordings so it display the editing keys.

The helptext might not be shown all the time but view when called up on.
