Is it possible to make emby my screen saver? It would be nice if we had a roku screen saver with setting to use Photos, back drops or any other image that emby has control of. Basically, a slide show with configure image sources like disc image or back drops or pictures. That would be very slick

I'm using Emby web app, version 4.7.11.0 @Happy2Play I searched the Emby (should it be lowercase emby?) forum and googled, but didn't find what I was looking for - apologies if this was already asked: I go to "Configure Emby" - or "Manage Emby Server" -> Clicked on "Display" -> I see Screensaver with Logo, Backdrop, Photo - that made me smile. But how do I implement that? I couldn't find a good Knowledge Base regarding screensaver. So... based on the forum/google research, I confirmed that I'm not using windows screensaver at all. I do not have computer go to sleep, etc. If I selected the Photo screen saver, after 5ish minutes, the screen goes to black. If I were to change the backdrop screensaver, do I need to provide images somewhere? -- Basically I need guidance on this. Is there a way I can shorten the delay before displaying screensaver? Again, based on research, I found one person said to check screensavermanager.js, but the forum ended without much details. I looked into screensavermanager.js (I know some programming) and had to use beautify for JS and didn't find anything related directly to 5 minute or whatever minutes to modify. Perhaps I overlooked, but is there a way to change the duration before displaying screensaver? Is there a detailed documentation about the difference on Logo, Backdrop, Photo screensaver and how to use / build images / etc for each one? Basically I'm asking for ELI5 on how to implement screensaver. (ELI5 = Explain Like I'm 5 years old). Much appreciated.

I am not seeing the Android TV screensaver activating when I pause a show in Emby for Android TV. I understand we are relying on the Android TV screensaver for Emby and that there is not one coded into Emby. I have my Shield screensaver set to 5 minutes and it does work, but not when Emby is paused. I believe it did at some point but I can't say that for certain. If Emby is open (not paused) the Android TV screensaver does start at the 5 minute mark. This is v1.4.52g for Android TV. Thanks for reading and any help!

Hi folks, Long time WMC MB / Emby user. Yesterday or the day before, the WMC Emby application (Emby Classic) updated itself. All seemed normal, at first. I left the system in browse mode, I think I was in the description page for a movie. Turned off TV, left and only this evening went back down to my media room to watch something. I turned on the TV and much to my surprise when the TV turned on there was a MediaBrowser screen saver going on. That's odd. I never knew Media Browser had a screen saver. And, if it was brand new based on the recently updated app, I figured it would be an Emby one, based on retiring of the Media Browser name. Anyway, I started clicking around, hitting Esc, etc. But the screen saver wouldn't end. Hitting play caused the movie whose description I was in to play in MPC-HC as usual). Hitting stop returned me to the screen saver. Eventually I closed WMC (with the close button in upper right) and restarted the MediaBRowser (Emby Classic!) app to actually watch my show. What's going on with this? Normally, before the software update, after WMC (in Emby app) detects no interaction, after 1 minute it goes to the normal WMC photo slide show screen saver. After I think 10 minutes it goes to black screen. Later the TV will autoshutoff, noticing no input for a certain time. So, I'm not sure what changed with the updated App that I would get a MediaBrowser screen saver, and I'm not sure how to tell it to exit the screen saver so I can get back to watching TV. No keys or clicks on my keyboard did anything. The computer is controlled only by a keyboard, no remote control. Please let me know what to do for next time... Thanks in advance! Marc
