The large green status bar at the bottom of the screen hides important text information on the tv when pause is pressed or FF/RW. During the news hour for example, names of people being interviewed or locations of events is hidden from view because the large green status bar covers it. Closed captions for movies are located at the bottom of the screen and are also covered by the large green status bar. If you press play, it takes 6 seconds for the status bar to disappear and then it’s often too late to read the information, resulting in a need to rewind again, only to have this occur again. If the location of the status bar was located at the top of the screen, it would not hide most network text. Better yet, if the user had the choice to move the status bar, that would be very convenient. Please consider this.
