Autodetect full-screen applications to switch between profiles #323

Open ewanotoole opened 4 years ago

ewanotoole commented 4 years ago

I love this app so much. However, there is a feature I think it would really benefit from. I personally only use the app in "ambilight mode" when fullscreen, be it a game or a video. Would it be possible for the app to auto detect when something is full screen and have a separate profile assigned to fullscreen mode. Then have another profile active, or the lights disabled, for when not fullscreen?

Thanks for all your work!

It seems to be possible on windows... but it may or may not be done

If you want something right now, you could try the AHK method like #306 where you'd toggle between profiles with some hotkeys (and if you are lucky maybe there's a script to detect fullscreen automatically)

full screen option sound like great idea.
