It's a setting in the OSD theme file -- FadeAwayFrames. Setting it to 0 will
make it not fade at all.

Right; but sometimes it takes me 2 seconds to read a program
description, and if it's long, it might take longer. The fade effect
is fine now, because even for a long description I can read
everything, but if it's shorter I still have to wait until the OSD
decays away. I'm curious if there can't be a key to make the OSD go
away immediately.

Thanks, Bob

Ah, nope, there's nothing like that in there currently. I'd say just make it
fade for a shorter time period -- 10 or 15 frames instead of the current 30.
