Hide pause overlay (1 Viewer)

[doveman]

I love StreamedMP but it's sometimes annoying when I want to pause to see something at the bottom of the screen, only for the great big info/pause box to cover up a third of the screen!

Is there a MOD to change this? A little Pause symbol in the upper-right corner would be much nicer, or maybe just the timeline at the top of the screen.

There is already an in-built solution for this skin.

Quote from ltfearme:
In GUI go to Settings -> Skin -> Video Settings (VIDEO MENU I guess)

Enable 'Use Minimal Video OSD when paused'


And then pause osd should look like this: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/attachments/streamedmp-301/66320d1281418253-remove-osd-pause-minimalosd.jpg

That's awesome. Exactly what I was looking for

I use this. But I would like synopsis to be displayed in the osd when video is not paused (pressing the key y ), instead of the logos. Is it possible? Thanks

It should be but you have to change something in the videoOSD.xml.
But what is the point in that? You only press Y (Info-Button on Remote) to get some more Infos. (Logos, Description of movies/serie...)
If you have such a small OSD it won't be possible to get those informations.

I'm not sure if what z3us wants is different to what I get but with the Minimal OSD enabled, I can still press my Info button on my remote to bring up the big OSD with all the info when watching TV.

I understand it like this that he wants also the Minimal OSD if he presses the Info button (or Y key).

Ah, I see. As you said, there's not really room in the Minimal OSD for anything other than the timeline!

No.

With the default settings you have 2 OSD formats:

- pause (spacebar key): the osd shows the overview of the serie/film



- Pressing Y: the osd shows logos of media info



If I enable 'Use Minimal Video OSD when paused', I cant see the overview while playing full screen video. So I wanted to have the overview pressing the Y buttton, instead of the logos.

Excuse my bad english, I hope now is clearer.

Thanks

I understand.. you will have the overview + logos when you move your mouse to the bottom of the screen.
