Why is it even turned on by default anyway?

Exposure, better to make people aware the feature exists and let them turn it off if they choose, than folk never finding out it's an option.

Well at least there should be a pop-up telling people how to turn it off .... especially since the manuals haven't been updated yet.

Not everyone is savvy enough to figure out where the video skin option actually is.

Thanks for your help, was looking in the settings menu assumed that was where it would be!

There is a pop up for anyone who downloaded since 10th June and activated video for the first time.
Anyone who had the very first EA release won’t see this pop up, unless they install from the website installer.

Is there a way to edit this and make it only visible for 10-15seconds?

Maybe... when though?

Edit what? There's more than one videoskin.

There are more available for download, including one designed for briefly displaying track titles.

Not the only option, because whatever XML code is used in the Title videoskin to make it appear for X seconds, could be added to whatever other videoskin the user chooses, to make that do the same.

That's something for the skin forum really, not here.

I am sure nobody will mind if you post that example in the skins forum thanks :-)

Why don't you start the ball rolling by posting which videoskin you'd like modified, which part(s) you want modified, and how long you want the part(s) to remain on screen?
