you need to do some research if there are any open source libraries to use them unser other operating systems, (ex. linux).
...but i'm pretty sure that scr files are actually executables (similar to exe or com) and if so they couldn't be used on xbox

scr files are standard windows executables, so i don't think we can support them.

i know we have the matrix thing as a screensaver but if anyone knows how to change it, or if we even can change it then let me know. i actually looked for the file (for the matrix screensaver) and couldnt even find it. its not a .scr file....

...or maybe an other solution is to add the possibility to use video as screensaver (playing in endless loop). there are a few aquarium and fire place films out there...

screensave...hmm this would be nice as the background in a skin. Imagine the famous aquarium screensaver running in the aeon skin. That would make xbmc come to life (more than the still fanart slideshow does). Both mce and playstation3 have a moving background...so that would be nice feature in xbmc as well.

Hi, I wanted to check to see if there is now any native support for using .scrs as XBMC screensavers?
Thanks!
