Updated to FRODO and love the fact that now my Win7 screensaver displays on the TV when the system is idle. However, how do you get out?
I can go to the PC and hit a key or move the mouse, but when using the remote I can hear the clicking and menu noises from XBMC but the screensaver stays on screen.
When idle a short while the screen does DIM just like in EDEN and using the remote makes it go back to normal again.
Is there a setting somewhere?

Well, gotta say I liked it at first now annoyed by it. :S
Is there not a way so when I hit a button on the remote it comes out of the system screensaver?
In EDEN, if XBMC was opened, it would disable the Win7 screensaver and use the XBMC dim screensaver only. I don't want to disable my system screen saver since then I'd have to enable/disable it constantly depending whether or not I'm using XBMC.

Nothin'?
Anybody?
Something changed between EDEN and FRODO since my Win7 screensaver never came on when XBMC was active... must be a way to change it somehow.

Disable Windows screensaver and use the XBMC screensaver instead?

No as mentioned previously " I don't want to disable my system screen saver since then I'd have to enable/disable it constantly depending whether or not I'm using XBMC."
XBMC runs half the time on my system, when not running I want a screensaver.
