Hi @Piipperi

Can you

go into Aerial's Settings, Advanced tab, scroll down, enable logs
launch the screen saver 3 or 4 times (launch, wait for say 10 seconds, exit, wait a bit, relaunch etc)
go back to same place in Aerial's settings and attach the AerialLog.txt here

Thanks, this will let me have a look at what's happening precisely

Piipperi commented 7 months ago

For some reason it works now, I had to switch a few times between the locations and now it's randomized like it should.

No worries, let me know if it happens again, sometimes it's just random luck. Take care.
