Didn't work returned "bash: xvattr: command not found" or didn't work
returned "Error: Can't open display: :0" or didn't work ran it while the
video was playing and the line didn't go away or didn't work ran it
before starting playback and the video was there during playback...
In other words, you found the right solution in the archives, so if it
doesn't work, it's probably a case of user error, but without knowing
what you tried, it's hard to guess what the problem is.
BTW, I recommend using some color other than 0--i.e. 10 or 30 or even
1. It's a much more proper solution--unfortunately, the
"vote-by-number-of-Google-results" system says that 0 is correct.
