I've an idea that you may consider to enhace this great plugin. It could be great if you add a dropdown list into the configuration of the plugin to allow selecting a screensaver from the list (you only need to list all *.scr into Windows folder and subdirs) and also a text box to provide an amount of time. That way, you can bypass the built in sceensaver in windows and launch the selected one after x minutes. Currently there is many problems when using windows screensaver into MP, because i think that MP is not being minimized before launching the screensaver... i've verifyed this launching the screensaver from My programs with no problems and i've noticed that after some minutes, when windows launches the screen saver mp hangs (it really doesn't hangs, but it stops giving visual feedback but i can still hear the MP sounds in background when pressing buttons... Launching the screensaver from your plugin could solve all this problems...

thanks and best regards,
