Yesterday i noticed that current time on lcd display is not updating when in standby mode.

hmm, the above issue, plus also 'freezing' on-display clock in radio mode, makes this screensaver feature unusable IMO (and at least it should be disabled by default/?/)...

That standby issue was fixed two days ago!

ok, that one I was not sure, apparently I overlooked the fix, sorry
but regarding the radio mode 'frozen' clock issue - I am 100% sure it still appears, today all the morning I had 6:43

[littlesat]

Now I understand what you mean.... as the screensaver is in fact a separate screen indeed it is likely that OSD is likely not..... This is one of the hidden thinks I did not recognize yet...

[littlesat]

I think I already have a solution for the timer. Can you check for me please if the clock is updated while you see the 2nd infobar permanently?

hmm, just saw your patch regarding this clock issue:

I'd like to confirm - seems to be fixed, thanks

[littlesat]

There will be another cleaning up patch soon.... I want to get rit of that global of the self of the current info InfoBar

Although a little late now. The screensaver also interupts service scanning.

That should be fixed...

@littlesat, is there any reason that the screensaver is burried in the "Sleep Timer Configuration" menu, as opposed to say, the "User Interface", "AV Settings" or "Customise" menu ?

Nice One

Screensaver on/off now in System/User Interface.

Good work thanx

I dont know, if it was happy solution move screensaver setting into System/User Interface. I think, all about screensaver, sleeptimer etc is better place in same submenu as it was before.

On most systems it is usually together.

[littlesat]

Orriginally I planned the ScreenSaver on the SleepTimer menu... but finally most over here thougt that moving it to the user interface was a better... That is why I moved it.

Do put it on dual locations is also not recommendable.

its not optimal, but be it...

 

MediaPlayer - playback from playlist - start each next item in playlist interrupts screensaver. It is not good for music.

Will not be better for Mediaplayer plugin make own screensaver ( as black screen only ) with config it in mediaplayer's menu - and for music with f.eg. 5sec and without interrupt it ?

[littlesat]

That is indeed again a difficult one. Now in the screensaver there is a detection that stops the screensaver as soon a new service is played. This is required in case a next played service could be a video service... I do not have a clear work-a-round for this one. Indeed it could be considered to add a different screensaver class to the mediaplayer that is slightly different as the one that is currently available in InfoBarGenerics (still the same screensaver screen could be used).

I think, for music could be used black screen with logo and not transparency witl last videoframe. Then will be less power consumed too.
