SOLVED
Hidding OSD while the movie playing pauses.
I left visible only the small seek bar on the bottom of screen and the movie paused / total running time on the right.
If you want, you can hide also that items in similar way in the same files.
We have to edit files under two directories:
.kodi/addons/skin.aeon.nox.5/21x9/
.kodi/addons/skin.aeon.nox.5/1080i/

Hi
after i found out that the dialogueseekbar.xml is resposible for the Pause OSD, i just renamed that file inside my confluence subdir to #dialogueseekbar.xml
When i now restart kodi, no errors, but the OSD is gone ...
when i hit the pause button, the movie is paused like before, but no OSD is shown anymore ...
Hope that helps others ...
there are ways to modify the file to your needs .. i just wanted to get rid of it for good

With skin Estuary you have to change one line in file
/usr/share/kodi/addons/skin.estuary/xml/DialogSeekBar.xml
:
<visible>Player.Seeking | Player.DisplayAfterSeek + !System.IdleTime(5) | [Player.Paused + !System.IdleTime(5) + !Player.Caching] | Player.Forwarding | Player.Rewinding | Player.ShowInfo | Window.IsActive(fullscreeninfo) | Window
.IsActive(videoosd) | Window.IsActive(musicosd) | Window.IsActive(playerprocessinfo) | !IsEmpty(Player.SeekNumeric)</visible>
It's working for me!
Thanks to Jim Knopf from the link above.

On windows 10 kodi build it works. But on android (nvidia shield tv) this setting in "DialogSeekBar" doesn't work. OSD instantly appear when I pause video. Can anybody help?
