Screen saver queries (1 Viewer)

[grumpydude]

Hi all,

I upgraded from 0.2.3.0 to 1.0RC2 about 5 weeks ago, and have recently wondered what happened to the setting that disabled the screen saver during video playback. It this an oversight, am I just dreaming about this setting?

Anf then the further question can be asked... What are people doing without this feature? I've found Vista plugin, but I can't get anything sensible out of it. I don't want to use the XP screen saver, as the one in media portal should suffice (as it used to prior to the upgrade).

Cheers,
andrew

There was a plugin that did that. I can not remember exactly what is was called. The bad thing about it was that if you played a movies and then paused them and walked away the screen saver would never come on. Other then that it worked fairly well and I did use it with RC2 before switching from Mediaportal back to XBMC.
