Custom video screensaver for JRiver
« on: May 14, 2019, 03:21:24 pm »

Hello,

I have been experiencing a little with Apple TV's Aerial that can play drone views as a screen saver.

I was wondering if such a functionality could be added to JRiver in order to use my own videos. This would allow for more variety, by choosing for example videos from a playlist. This would also let the functionality be active only within JRiver (I do no particularly like the screen saver turning on when I am accessing the HTPC remotely has it can make things slower with the remote access application).

I am not sure how difficult this would be, but some prerequisites are already there : I can listen to music and launch a video on another zone. I am not sure however of the possibility to program a video playlist to launch on a specific zone (probably with zone switch), with sound off, and pausing/stopping when there is an input from mouse or keyboard.

There are probably a few more things that need to be figured out, but anyway, I think this could be a nice addition.

Thanks for reading, :)
ZenOli.
