Is there any Screensaver template code for windows? - EqUiNoX - 2009-11-07

Hi,

Is there any example code located somewhere for building a screensaver for use with XBMC? Either something I can strip down or something like a hello world type thing Smile

I had a look but cant seem to find anything.

You could try this one: http://trac.xbmc.org/browser/branches/xbox/docs/TemplateXBS.rar

It's for xbox so you have to replace directx8 by directx9 but it could work.

Thanks,

I also assume something will need to be done about...

strcpy(szXMLFile, "Q:\\screensavers\\");

as I assume Q: is no longer valid.

True, replace it by special://xbmc/screensavers/

Hi,
I'm also interested in getting a screensaver template.

Has anyone ported the Xbox template to Windows or Linux?

Thanks.
