    I wanted to know what the button was at the top of MP home screen and it gave me this message:

    Live tv in background
    -------------------------
    No Video/TV playing
    Make sure you use VMR9 and that something is playing.

    First of all, the text runs off the dialog (skinning issue perhaps).
    Second... what is this technobabble? As if my wife (if I had any) would have any idea what VMR9 means. "Honey, what tv channel is VMR9?"

    MP is already almost too technical (at least to setup) but please let's try to hide this as much as possible from the end user.

    Ok, having said that... I still have no idea what this button should do in the first place ;-)
    lol. But that's another (usability) issue.
