To view your CDN via netflix/silverlight on PC. Ctrl+Shift+Alt+D I think. Ctrl+Shift+Alt+M – Menu; includes loading custom .dfxp sub-title files. Ctrl+Shift+Alt+C – Codes; frame rate plus other (unknown to me) info. Also makes the other overlays green. Ctrl+Shift+Alt+D – Display A/V Stats on-screen Ctrl+Shift+Alt+L – Logging window Ctrl+Shift+Alt+P – Player info Ctrl+Shift+Alt+R – toggle color Rotation for overlays in Chrome; probably a debugging feature. Ctrl+Shift+Alt+S – current Streaming bit-rate and manual bit-rate selection
