I've updated my screensaver for the upcoming Kodi release, applied some fixes, sorted out Python 3 issues and added some new features.
Unfortunately I'm still stuck with the text on the screen stuttering when bouncing movement is selected.
Basically in order for the bouncing effect to look nice and smooth the while cycle needs to run every 20ms.
This is achieved with self.monitor.waitForAbort(self.waittimer)
self.waittimer is 0.02
If it's made to be 100ms there will be far less stuttering (or none at all) but the animation doesn't look nice.
I've tried using xbmc.sleep with same values and the result is the same, so no difference in comparison to monitor.waitforabort.
I'm not a developer, it's somewhat of a miracle I managed to get this far
I'm aware you're extremely busy...
Any idea how I can make the bouncing animation look nice and smooth without having to call Kodi too many times?
This is the github for my screensaver which is updated with the newest stuff:
https://github.com/vdb86/screensaver.dig...ree/master
If you get a chance and figure out how this could be fixed it would mean a world to me.
Thank you
