    I wonder what the problem is here:
    when my video fullscreen playing, I can see red dot only when I do -15 seconds backward, not when clicking on "info" for showing the OSD.
    If you use a remote, "Info" displays the tvZAPOSD.xml in Live TV, in MyVideos there is no equivalent OSD :oops: ???
    To clarify a bit more:
    Using keyboard, the "big" OSD (TVOSD.xml or VideoOSD.xml) with navigation buttons is shown when pressing "Y" or hovering down with mouse. Pressing "F3" shows the "Info OSD", a smaller OSD without any buttons.
    As MyVideo does not provide an equivalent to tvZAPOSD.xml, nothing will be shown when pressing "F3" or "info" on remote (depending on the mapping I assume).
    The videoFullScreen.xml and mytvFullScreen.xml show the Pause/FFW/RW OSDs.

    Here the latest (and so far final) package for the OSDs - I deleted the end times as suggested by @CyberSimian ;)

    OK, I will post my tests but before, to be clear I have "info" remote working on fullscreen video (in that case for my own config, it's big OSD "Y") and you are true, it depends on the mapping.
    As you can see, my irtrans remote mapping is not standard, I added this in xml file :

    So I shoud not say "remote info" but big OSD.

    Also for tests results the same behaviour for MyTV and MyTVRecordedTV.

    1/ My TV with recorded channel playing :
    - Big OSD with "Y" give red dot in OSD right.
    - OSD with -15 s give 2 red dots in OSD left and right.

    2/ My TV with another channel than recorded :
    - Big OSD with "Y" give no red dot. :(
    - OSD with -15 s give red dot in OSD left.

    3/ My Videos with recorded channel previously playing (before g_player stop) :
    - Big OSD with "Y" give no red dot. :(
    - OSD with -15 s give red dot in OSD left.

    4/ My Videos with another channel than recorded previously playing :
    - Big OSD with "Y" give no red dot. :(
    - OSD with -15 s give red dot in OSD left.

    Hope it helps.

    Absolutely, many thanks for that, it's wonderfull to have it.
    Here is a case 4/ sample :

    But the weird thing (IMHO) is why not having a red dot where something is recording ?

    The "Active Recordings" button is now only visible if a recording is ongoing - and the button is RED now :D
    That is definitely an improvement. :) But I think that @framug and I were hoping that the info OSDs for TV and video would look like the ones implemented in the attached zip ("TvOsd.xml" and "VideoOsd.xml"). :cool:
