Kscape Plugin for Tv/2nd Screen

How about a Kscape plugin/app for tvs and/or second screens around the house that can display cover art of movies owned/Now playing detail/trailers etc.

I know there are other products that can do this (Digital Movie Boards etc.) but isn't there a way to utilise the screens we already have?

My thinking is that the above information could be displayed on an otherwise blank screen when on standby. A bit like a screensaver.
 
I know you say you know you can do this with Digital Movie boards, but just wanted to ensure you realize you can turn any screen into a digital movie board using software like movieposterapp. You just need a computer to run and display the browser that connects to that software (sounds more difficult than it is). Then you would just switch to the input this is connected to when you want to see. Digital movie boards are just a small stick computer plugged into an HDMI.
