Another Menu Hierachy Based on Interviews

After looking at the interview information and using informed design, the new menu hierarchy is thus;

I have a set of gestures for the different functions. and there is some extra functionality based oin the interviews such as record and pirate (as in pirate a cd). I have only briefly gone through the gestures from the interviews briefly, so I'm working off the assumption I can differentiate between them effectively.

The Drawer analogue was one suggested from the interviews and fixes the problem with TV not needing a playlist. As it stands the system visually will be limited to suppling information to the user about the current state and not the available movements.

I'm thinking a beginner user representation showing hints towards the gesture which can be taken off when needed will supply the information about available gestures which can then let the user guess the right gesture. This comes back to the problem of making the gestures able to be recognized easily so the user can know quickly what the gestures are.

I've got some sketches of the system but since the gestures actully have nothing on screen they are a bit simplistic.
