[edit] Properties
[edit] Disable OSD
If you check this box the OSD will be turned off completely, this is mostly for testing purposes. No more OSD pages or notices will be shown. Some notices will appear as standard windows message boxes instead. Disabling the OSD causes some features to stop working, including some where one would never guess they’d be tied into the OSD, like for example some commands in Optionen Eingaben.
[edit] Disable mouse in OSD
If you check this box the OSD will no longer react to your mouse at all. It’s then no longer possible to select or activate any OSD element using the mouse.
[edit] Enable mouse hot tracking in OSD
If activated, any OSD button the mouse passes over will be highlited.
[edit] Display Background graphics
If you chose to display a OSD Background graphics the TV output in the player will be displayed in a small preview window. If no background image is to be displayed the TV output in the player window will remain in its full size behind the OSD display. Follow the advice of the author od the skin that you are using if Display Background graphics should be enabled or not. In order to use a background graphic the skin actually needs to have a space reserved for it in the menus. The preview window used when displaying a background image might however introduce some inconsistencies, like for example when it comes to OSD overscan or changes in the aspect ratio.
[edit] Hide known extensions
If you check this box a files file extension (like .mpeg or .mp3) will be hidden if there’s is a default program assigned to it for opening/playback.
[edit] Loglevel
Set the level of detail for logging in osd.log (in your config folder). A setting of 0 pretty much logs every activity, 99 will basically only log actually errors only. Default is 50.
[edit] Menutimeout
This settings controls after how many seconds without any user activity an OSD should close itself automatically. If you set menu timeout to 0 the OSD will never close itself automatically. If you want to set a timeout for individual OSDs use Windowdef.xml.
[edit] Settings
[edit] VRM Transparency
Use this slider to set the overall transparency of the OSD. (OSD skins also support areas with individual transparency settings not influenced by this slider). If you chose ‘Overlay’ as renderer in Options DirectX transparency will not work.
