Title: How can I keep Playing Now on top?
Post by: doright on June 23, 2007, 09:45:57 pm

Is there a way to keep "Playing Now" in Theater View always on top?
My screen saver knocks it off after 5 minutes.

When I go to Full Screen Mode it's fine and not affected by Windows screen saver.

Thanks!

We allow the screen-saver in Theater View to prevent plasma burn-in.

If you don't need a screen-saver, you could simply disable it in Windows.

Could you please make this a user configurable option? I've got all LCD panels and I'm not concerned as much about screen burn in. This would give everyone the ability to choose the behavior they want.

If there is no reason for you to "save the screen", why don't you just turn it off  ;)

Because when I'm using the PC for other tasks I WANT the screen "saver" to disable what's on the screen when I've paused work for a while.
