Video Playlist as Screensaver

razzeee commented 7 years ago

Reported by Gamester17 on 3 Oct 2003 13:07 UTC

A video playlist (of AVI, OGM, MPG. etc. clips) played in a sucsession as a screensaver (when set idle time is reached it is activated). This video screebsaver/playlist should have repeat on by default (if one selects to disable repeat then the Xbox should shut off when the playlist finish) and a randomize option available: ex.

New section ("Screen Savers"?) under "Settings" in GUI:

Black Screen Screen Saver: Enable/Disable Picture/Video Screen Saver: Enable/Disable Options for Picture/Video/Music screen saver: Picture playlist to display on idle: Up/Down (here on can browse existing playlists) Music playlist to play on idle (if any): Up/Down (here on can browse existing playlists) Video playlist to display on idle: Up/Down (here on can browse existing playlists) Audio visualization when Music playlist only: Enable/Disable Showdown on finish (otherwise repeat): Enable/Disable Randomize/Scramble Picture playlist: Enable/Disable Randomize/Scramble Music playlist: Enable/Disable Randomize/Scramble Video playlist: Enable/Disable

(of course different options will be grayed out above depending on what one select)

Note! For this all to work in a good way one would probeby have to code XBMP to save playlists from "My Videos","My Music" and "My Pictures" in separate locations (set in config.xml).

Comment by SlaveUnit on 17 Dec 2008 00:29 UTC I would love to see being able to play video files in the screen saver mixed in with pictures. Would be great for a mixed slideshow of trivia slides and videos.

Comment by sho on 17 Dec 2008 10:04 UTC Guys, what do you think? What about allowing Video Smart Playlists as a screensaver? (Would the vids play in succession?)

Comment by Gamester17 on 19 Dec 2008 21:04 UTC Suppoft for Video Smart Playlists as a screensaver would great but I would like to see support for normal manually created playlists as well (M3U, PLS, CUE, URL, and STRM video playlists and bookmarks).

Comment by sho on 19 Dec 2008 21:53 UTC Well, this request has been around for so long that it still mentions XBMP in the description. My thought was to start "simple", but even that is moot if no dev is interested.

Comment by gizzard on 17 Jan 2009 16:09 UTC I hope that this will be in the next release as I am using XBMC as a picture frame.
