The only problem i get now is occasionally it will just be a black screen.

Also does this continue to download more images forever?

I leave my htpc on 24/7, will that mean it will use a lot of bandwidth?
Could you give me a log when you have that black screen issue?

No, it won't take much bandwith. Images are cached by XBMC, the albums and photosets are cached by the scraper_manager. Logic is:
PHP Code:
while not screensaver-should-end:
 for 
scraper in get-next-scraper-from-all-scrapers-in-an-endless-loop-in-random-order:
  for 
album in all-albums-from-current-scraper-in-random-order:
   for 
photo in all-photos-from-current-album-in-random-order:
    
show-photo-x-seconds 
every albums and photosets will be hold in cache so even when you reach next iteration in the while-loop it won't download data again.

Clever, isn't it? Wink
