Changing on-screen video info

Is it possible to customize/select which video information (title, runtime, release date) is displayed on roVideoScreen when "down arrow" key is pressed?!

  • You can't change which attributes of the content-meta-data are displayed in the HUD. But you could experiment with manipulating the values of those attributes to get different information displayed.
  • Thanks. I will try that.
    It's interesting that "Length" attribute is not set but is still displayed.
  • It is annoying as some shows I want length to show and others I do not want it to show and still shows 0m.

    I think you're talking about something else. I'm pretty sure the video overlay shows the actual length as detected by the video player. If the springboard is showing "0m" then you need to make sure the .Length metadata attribute is set to invalid and not 0.
