    wmp6 and screensaver

    I had a problem playing divx all of a sudden with some movies. The problem was slow playback and especially slow sound. I tried to play it with playa and lost my sound. since powerdvd did play ok (but scaling is rotten) I figured it wasn't the file.

    So i tried wmp6 from the normal xp instal. This works great ! BUT ... Now I got the problem that my screen saver is coming on after 3 minutes. Anyone know a trick to supress this for this version of media player ?

    Thx.

    Permanently turn off your screensaver - it's obsolete technology anyway (unless you just like that sort of thing)...

      seti

      It's just turning to black for seti@home to calculate. pretty obsolete indeed but it's been running for years now, just some sort of habit I guess.
