Dim Screensaver cannot set lower than 20% - treboR2Robert - 2019-07-09

I use kodi on a OLED tv and would like to be able to set the Dim screensaver to something like 10% to avoid burn in, but atm it seems that it is not possible to set it lower than 20%.

Is this a bug ? Is there a way around it ?

Thank you
Rob

This is restricted in the addons/screensaver.xbmc.builtin.dim/resources/settings.xml file. Edit the file on your system (probably under /usr/share/kodi on Linux) and change the first value in the range array to your desired minimum.
