Is there a way to make kodi not show the video Now Playing OSD controls when doing fast forward/backward or just pausing via the keyboard (without moving the mouse)? It's annoying and sometimes I do it to catch a subtitle and the OSD gets in the way. There's a dirty workaround for disabling it for pausing but I want to know if there is a setting I might have missed that could disable this behavior.

Moved to the Estuary section, as it seems a generic Estuary skin question.
PS: I agree by the way, the OSD should be a bit less invasive on subtitles in case of fast forward/backward or pausing.

Each skin has its own OSD layout, and some have options to (not) display the OSD during pause.
Unfortunately I do not know all settings for each skin by heart, AKA I have no photographic memory.
One option is to simply install each skin and see what happens.
I would make a full backup of your kodi profile folder before you do that.

OSD in kodi is often quite annoying. I got rid of that osd when paused or seeking by removing "Player.DisplayAfterSeek | [Player.Paused + !Player.Caching] |" in file "C:\Program Files (x86)\Kodi\addons\skin.estuary\xml\DialogSeekBar.xml".
