That's intended. Making the area of the billboard text as small as possible increases the possible positions where the clock can "jump to", avoiding excessive screen burn-in (instead of moving only vertically, it can also move horizontally). That's also the reason why the clock "jumps" by default - otherwise it could just stay in the top right corner.

See the first part of this post.

It's on my TODO list, but not fixed yet. For now, just play a song and close the music player to clear the now playing info (IMHO it's actually a bug in the Video Player, as it should clean the Media.NowPlaying contextkit property when it closes, but I'll try to work around this - probably with some MAFW integration).
