pt2-clone disables screensaver #14

Closed xenium1024 closed 3 years ago

xenium1024 commented 3 years ago

I've noticed that when I have pt2-clone running it disables my screensaver. Since I sometimes leave it running on a CRT to just listen to mod files, I worry about phosphor burn. (Come on, I'm not the only one running this on a CRT, right? Hehehe.) ;-)

I didn't see anything in the source related to this so I did some research and found that this is now the default behavior for the SDL library, so you would have to explicitly tell SDL not to disable the screensaver on startup via a simple call to SDL_EnableScreensaver().

Any chance this could be added to a future release?

My phosphors thank you in advance. :-)

Love pt2-clone btw!

I fixed this right now, but I'm not sure when I will release a new version.

That has to be the world record for fastest bug fix ever. Thanks! :-)

No worries on the release, I'll give a try at compiling it.

I just successfully compiled it and can confirm my screensaver works again even when it's playing full screen. Awesome.

Thanks Bubsy!
