Screensaver while video playing in background? - evilblade - 2015-05-21

Hi!
I've just stumbled upon one simple thing. Say I'd like to play some "video" not to watch it, but just to listen to Smile
To be perfectly clear I'd like to play some soundtrack collections from YouTube. But the thing is the "video" part of such "videos" is usualy just some static image, which is really bad for my plasma screen. I thought if I put this video in background by clicking on "X" in the upper-right corner KODI would start screensaver after 1 min. But it doesn't.
So, is there any way to make it start screensaver while video continues to play in background?
Thanks in advance for any kind of answer.

Hmm, maybe not. That one doesn't do what I thought it would.
