Yellow pause bar

Let me be clear - I love my BoxPro - and find it a joy to use.

But……

I have one major beef and it is with the intrusive yellow pause bar! If I want to take a closer look at a detail in a scene and press pause, I instantly lose a quarter of my screen and it invariably blots out the detail I was wishing to see. So I have to rewind a bit and replay, ignoring how long the darned thing takes to fade out, so I can hopefully catch a fleeting glimpse of what I was interested in.

And after a movie, especially on TPTV, the cast list appears at the end. They often roll quickly so I hit pause, only to lose the bottom section of the list because, you’ve guessed, the yellow bar and screen shading has blocked it from view!

I do so wish there was an option in settings where you could change the size, duration and screen position of this thing, thus removing my only complaint about this box. Am I alone in this or does it bother other viewers too?

After pressing Pause, press Back. This should hide the bar.
