I've searched quite a bit here, and I can't find anyone else with this similar issue. I'm using EVR and I've never been able to get the screen saver to work, either the built in one or MLPanel. My TV will just sit there. With my new LCD, I'm concerned with burn in so I've taken to turning it off and on when not in use, but I'd like to avoid that.

My screen saver section in config.xml:

Code:
<!-- screen saver -->
  <ScreenSaverEnabled>true</ScreenSaverEnabled>
  <ScreenSaverPlugin>Default Screen Saver</ScreenSaverPlugin>
  <ScreenSaverKickinSeconds>120</ScreenSaverKickinSeconds>
  <ScreenSaverMoveFrequency>10</ScreenSaverMoveFrequency>

Any ideas? Does it just not work in EVR, because I don't see anything saying that?

Start the app, leave it sitting at the menu for five minutes, then zip and attach the pvrx2.exe.log and I'll take a look.

LCD's don't suffer from 'burnin' like plasma or crt...it's in their very nature...can't happen..
and technically, modern crt's won't burnin unless you leave high contrast graphics on screen for about a month...[advances in phosphor tech.]
so pretty much all screensavers are solely eyecandy...

power-off is better way to go, also saves power and wear n tear..Smile
[tho constantly turning it on/off isn't that good for it in long run either]

monitor power off even works with -fse too..Smile
