I have searched the forum and see that there has been some discussion on this but I am not sure what the final status is. There has been talk of work arounds and manual launches but I can't see definative answer.

....So is it possible to launch the screensaver to an external application? Specifically a .src

If not any plans?

Sits in rack with other HiFi.
ParaLED to show tuner activity.

No, its not current possible to do this. I have no plans to add this, since this wouldnt be compatible with the MVP/PVR350/XCard.

it would be simple enough for a screensaver plugin to do this, just when gbpvr activates the internal screensaver that screensaver plugin just activates a standard windows one.

I could imaging this might be a simple plugin all it would do is pass off to another application - but I wouldn't know where to start.

Last time I programmed with any depth it was in Pascal anyone remember that??
