    Sorry I don't know the right terminology but I would like to completely remove the on screen display of progress. It is annoying to have it pop up when I skip ahead 30 seconds or fast forward. I would like it only to show up with a specific action, eg. press the thumbs up - but actually don't care if I never see it. Is this possible? I contacted Tivo support and they were useless. Thanks!

    You can set the 'hack' for 'Quick Clear Play Bar' with:

    Select>Play>Select>Play>Select.

    You must be playing back a Recording for it to 'set'.

    KMTTG can also do it for you easily.

    I don't think that KMTTG works any more. At least it doesn't for me. It's security certificate has expired and I thought I read somewhere on this forum that the developer wasn't going to, or couldn't, renew it.

    Never mind. I see that there is a new version with a certificate that runs through 2022.

    Thanks to all the replied!!! I will check out KMTTG as well. Are other hacks similar to this documented anywhere? I might find some other useful things.

    Pressing Play or Clear will remove the on screen display.
