Video player overlay stuck on screen

[Mogs]

Unless I'm missing something obvious, when using the native video player, the play bar & pause/play button (etc) is permanently stuck on screen. I would expect it to hide itself after a few seconds?

Yesterday the same happens to me, any news about how to fix that?

Ditto for me, never goes away with the latest update.

Same here, due to latest update.

The controls get stuck for me as well after I open them to turn on subtitles and/or change the audio track. Have not found a way to make them go away after that.

If I just start to play a movie from "Home" and do not open the controls the controls do not show up and remain hidden.

Activating 2 controllers solved it for me. Thanks.

The controls show up if you have a controller pointed at them. Please make sure neither of your controller is pointed at the screen and it should go away.

Please note that if your controller is turned off, the videoplayer controls will always appear on screen.

This is a known bug and we'll fix it within 1-2 weeks. Until then, please turn on your controllers and point them away from the screen.

Thanks for info. I would suggest making it so you have to both point and press a button (trigger?) to make the overlay appear. It's too easy to be pointing at the screen without wanting to interact with it, especially in multiplayer when you'll be more inclined to mess about with popcorn etc, or simply gesticulate while speaking.

How can I officially provide feedback to suggest that the controls don't show up unless you point and then press a specific button. I talk while I watch videos and have gotten used to gesturing with my hands. Even just setting the controllers on my legs often leaves them pointing vaguely at the screen. This is very disruptive when the controls take over the screen. Could they possible show up above/below or to the side of the video?
