How do I turn off the time and camera name?

I'm just getting started. I finally got my first camera, a Hikvision DS-2CD2442FWD-IW up and running. I also got Windows 10 Pro installed on the computer I purchased and have installed Blue Iris and have my camera added.

That's pretty much as far as I've gotten so far.

I want to use Blue Iris' date/time overlay rather than the camera's. In the attached image, you can see the camera's date/time overlay at the top left of the screen, and there is a name, Camera 01, at the bottom right. I would like those turned off if I can, but I can't seem to find any way to do that from the camera settings. Will someone please let me know if I can do what I want, and where and how I accomplish it?

Thanks.


 
In the cam's setup - Configuration > Image > OSD Settings.

But you probably don't want to use BI's overlays since better to use direct-to-disk in BI to save overhead which makes the BI overlays N/A.
 
OK, thanks for the advice. I've been a computer/techno geek for close to 40 years, but cameras and Blue Iris are all completely new territory for me. I know I have tons to learn, but I'm looking forward to it.
