I did notice that as well but at the time didn't want to look into it...
What I did with the configuration of the buttonlist to be used in the
gallery view is this:

       <layout>grid</layout>
       <scrollstyle>free</scrollstyle>
       <arrange>fixed</arrange>
       <align>allcenter</align>
       <wrapstyle>items</wrapstyle>
       <showarrow>no</showarrow>
       <drawfrombottom>yes</drawfrombottom>

The <wrapstyle> attribute is set to "items" to make the buttonlist jump to
the beginning and causes the appearance of the list to fill the screen when
there are more columns and row in the list then there are on the screen.
Where it goes wrong is when the attribute <drawfrombottom> is set to "yes".
This causes the buttonlist to be drawn from the right bottom of the area
which is set in the <buttonarea>, but doesn't take into account that due to
the list being drawn in reverse order the rows might add up differently
when not all rows and columns are filled by the items in the list: this is
what is causing the navigation to screw up :(

In the case of your setup, it jumps to what it thinks is the first item in
the row when the right arrow is pressed (which would be correct if the list
was drawn top to bottom).

I guess I need to fill a bug report to get this fixed, as this is not the
way the list should behave when drawn bottom to top.

B.T.W. I removed the background panel as per your previous comment: The
video gallery now looks like this:

Will include into the next release of the theme (which will be once I
finished MythZoneminder plugin).
