WD TV Live Media Player: Should the Information Bar be turned off by the User?

You can disable the “infobar” with a simple xml theme edit …

Here is a 100% no video overlays theme (No status bar,loading icon,subtitlte,audio,ff,rew,play etc)

http://www.mediafire.com/download/bhtyjaaw3xa0f7h/NoVideoOverlays.zip

To install the theme, download the zip file to your PC, open your web browser (I don’t recommend using IE8 or 9, there have been issues), then type your SMP’s IP address to open the Web UI.   Type in your password (the default is “admin”), click on the box next to “I accept” and then click on LOGIN, then click on “Appearance”, then click on “Browse” and navigate to where you saved the “NoVideoOverlays.zip” file, then click on “Open”.

Click on “Submit”, then once the Web UI finishes uploading the theme, on you SMP press “Setup” on your remote, select “Appearance”, then select “User Interface Themes”, select “NoVideoOverlays” then when prompted select “Apply theme”.
