Willing to try tho.

I just wanted to add that the osd showing through the live tv image is new
for me since upgrading to .28
But, the osd image appearing behind the on screen channel guide is not.  I
remember seeing that in .27 before the update.  It never really caused a
issue for me so I just ignored it.
