[A_Gayathri]

To remove the on-screen playback box when watching videos on an HP Notebook PC, you can follow these general steps:

1. Access Video Playback Settings:

   • Open your video player software (e.g., VLC, Windows Media Player, or a web browser).
   • Look for the settings or options menu within the player.
     
     

2. Adjust Full-Screen Playback:

   • Enable or switch to full-screen mode for video playback. This mode usually hides the playback box and controls.
   • You might be able to toggle full-screen mode by pressing F11 or clicking the full-screen icon on the player.
     
     

3. Disable On-screen Display (OSD) or Controls:

   • If the player has an On-Screen Display (OSD) or controls option, disable it to remove the playback box.
   • Check within the player's settings for options like "Hide controls" or "Disable OSD."
     
     

4. Close Other Running Software:

   • Ensure no third-party software or overlay tools on your computer interfere with video playback.
   • Close unnecessary applications running in the background.
     
     

5. Check Graphics Driver Settings:

   • Ensure that your graphics drivers are up to date, as outdated drivers can sometimes cause display issues.
   • Update the graphics driver if needed via HP Support Assistant or the manufacturer’s website.
