ok, so this is probably a stupid question but I have searched google and couldn't find an answer. During video playback in XBMC how do you get the video controls at the bottom of the screen to go away automatically. I have to hit "ESC" before they will go away.

Hi there,
I'm not sure there is an auto option. I guess it's assuming you invoked in order to do something. May be able to alter in advanced settings or by altering the videoOSD.xml..

What did you do in the first place to get the OSD to display while watching a video? If you move the mouse, the OSD will display and then dismiss itself automatically after a few seconds. If you call up the OSD explicitly, it will remain displayed until you explicitly dismiss it (with Esc or "i", depending on how the OSD was explicitly activated).

Hi!
Sounds like something interfering, hard to know what exactly. Try start a video only using the keyboard, and possible disconnect the mouse for that time being.
The Problem is not the problem. The problem is your attitude about the problem.
Do you understand?

Or simply disable mouse support in XBMC: System/Settings > System > Input devices > Enable mouse and Touch Screen support
This will prevent the OSD from popping up inadvertently due to incidental mouse movement. Should you ever need to access the OSD, then just press "i" or Enter to display it and, to dismiss it, press "i" or Esc (respectively).

Yeah, both should work for troubleshooting the issue
