Whilst XBMC is playing media on screen you can activate the codecinfo overlay (O key). This normally appears as white text on a black background bar located near the top of the screen (dependent on the skin being used).The codecinfo overlay displays a number of real time variables describing detailed information on the codecs currently in use.

Frodo
In Frodo in fullscreen video playback, the codec information is split into 4 lines of text. In Gotham it splits into 6 lines.
- Audio information - provided by both the Demuxer and the Player
- Video information - provided by both the Demuxer and the Player
- General playback information C
- Windowing and System CPU information
- Sync to screen information
