    Hello,

    I have noticed that if I am not using the remote during playback, that once a video / TV series finishes playing, that MediaPortal automatically turns the screen blank (screen saver / monitor off)

    I searched and found this in the wiki; http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_...tal_GUI_gets_black_after_video_playback_stops

    I am not sure if this is related or not... I am using MediaPortal 1.2.2 and the latest plugins for Moving Pictures & TVSeries within the StreamedMP skin collection.

    I am using CCCP for my codec collection and running Windows 7.

    Does anyone have any suggestions? I am happy to try another codec pack if this is the problem? I think MediaPortal should reset the screen saver counter once a video finishes playing?

    Hi,
    this can also happen if you have set "turn screen off" in your windows energy settings.
    Set a time span which is longer then your usual movies, maybe around 120min and it won't happen...

    Alright, I will also try changing that setting to 2 hours. However, you would think that MP would restart the screensaver countdown when it finishes playing?
