hey guys
running a mi box on my smart TV. I have daydream screensaver set up to a third party app to display photos. Problem though, is while I'm running Kodi app the screensaver won't turn on if I'm inactive for a while. Any idea how to fix this? Only options are to use built in Kodi screensaver. Don't want to do that since I paid for this very nice photo display app.
Thanks!
I have quite the opposite issue. Sometimes daydream kicks in when SPMC is playing a video!
That's with the default daydream on a Mi Box
The problem is these apps specifically keep the screen "on", meaning inactivity will not go to daydream. This may be a setting, but it may just be a "feature" in Kodi
I found the solution. I set the kodi screensaver to "Dim" and that worked. Meanwhile, when I tried setting kodi screensaver to "off" or "photos" it would do those actions, but if I put "dim" then instead the android screensaver would kick in.
Same for me with spmc.
Did you turn off the kodi screensaver?
I would also cross post to /r/kodi or ask in their official forums.
