Happy to answer any questions and provide additional detail. I used this link to come up with the solution for the playlist that I displayed. http://www.ecalpemos.org/2013/01/youtube-video-fullscreen-launch.html

@liquidx, thinking about creating a fork seeding some embedded youtube playlists into the default out of the box screensaver. So that when people install. It will automatically have some content.

I can also make this a pull request, if it gets completed and is wanted. Though, I understand the appeal of being able to put any webview in and none by default forcing them to enter what they want. 👍

Big fan of this screensaver. cheers, Michael Dimmitt

Not a bad idea, but instead of linking to YouTube what I recommend people do, is download all the videos in mp4 format and create a simple index.html that loads them up in a <video> tag. This gets you a clean player without elements, that you can have complete control of. Yes, it's a bit more involved but you end up with better results.
