ScreenSaver - show title along with fanart? - Betard - 2012-01-31

Anyone know a hack or addon that will use the fanart as a screensaver (as is currently possible) but also show the Movie / TV show title?

Sometimes I an image appears and I would like to know what its from.

That would be a great idea.
Maybe an update to the slideshow screensaver could do that ?

I think it's entirely possible, but I don't think anything like that has been made yet.

Python based visualizations would probably be even nicer, that way a screen saver could become both. But from what I recall that's quite tricky to do with the way we currently handle visualizations. Spiff knows best Smile
