TV screensaver starts when playing photos diaporama

[Philippe007 0]

Hello,

I have Emby Theater 1.0.24 on my LG TV.

My LG TV details:  webOS  TV OLED55C6V, software release 05.60.15.

When I'm playing a photo diaporama, based on the TV screensaver setup, my TV enters screensaver mode.

It is like it doesn't detects that Emby is running. I don't have this issue with Netflix app.

I've crawl and search that topic, I found no report of the same issue.

Parameters in Emny app are few and I found nothing related with screensaver.

Thank you for any support.

Is the slideshow playing from the Emby app on the TV, or is this slideshow using the built in LG photo app on the TV playing photos from the server?

From the Emby app on the TV.

HI, we'll take a look at this, although I'm not sure LG provides us with a way to stop this from happening. Thanks.

I've had another look and they don't provide anyway for us to disable the screen saver.  I've seen this mentioned as an issue in a few LG forums for various apps.

I did read that in some models a firmware update allowed users to disable the screen saver from within the TV settings, so that might be possible for you.  Just check in the TV settings.

I presume that when you are play a movie/TV show through the app the screen saver does not come on.  Is that correct?
