The Channel Banner appears at the top of the screen when you tune to a channel or press the INFO button on the remote control while viewing video. You can select a Short or Full banner using the PREFERENCES menu from the System Setup tab. The short/full banner feature only affects banners displayed when changing channels.

Banners disappear from the screen after a few seconds, but you can remove them from the screen instantly by pressing the CLEAR button on the remote control.
