I have a 55XF9005 TV, which is connected to a STR-DN1080 Receiver via the ARC HDMI, everything else (Sky Q box, Sony 4k DVD player and an X-BOX 360) are connected via separate HDMI's direct into the receiver (awesome visual and sound experience I must add) However I have always had the problem of the Banner popping up occasionally, for no apparent reason, although it was not really that often to spoil the experience, until recently! I had very recently upgraded my WiFi from a pathetic 1mbps to the latest Superfast FTTP with 100mbps. for some time prior to this I had a new version of software prompt showing up on my TV each time I switched on, but delayed the upgrade until the new Broadband was available or it would have taken a week to do! Now I am not saying that the software update was the cause, but around the same time the Info banner problem became unbearable at times flashing up sometimes 3 or 4 times in a couple of minutes for as long as 10-15 seconds at a time, then nothing for a while until it started again! after a week or so in desperation I looked on here and found what appears to be the solution! The answer which appears to have worked for me was to switch off the infobar as suggested, although the suggested route of Home->Settings->Channel Settings->Infobar->OFF was not the option on my particular TV, so with a little perseverance I eventually found the Infobar ON/OFF switch using Home->Settings->Watching TV->Info banner, where I turned it OFF! Amazing it appears to have worked, had my first ever night of viewing without it appearing once, so for those who say they do not have that option, it may be worth hunting around the settings menu, as it may be there under a different option!
ps Thanks for the tip pukman New you have saved me putting my foot through what is a brilliant tele!
