I want to develop an idea I have for an screensaver but I cant found which xml works with that.
Can somebody tell me which .xml works with the actual screensaver in xbmc.

There isn't one. The screensaver window has no controls.

Sure, but not using XML.
The screensavers fall into 2 categories:
1. Those provided by the XBMC executable (slideshow, dim, black).
2. Those provided in the form of dlls.
What was it you had in mind exactly?
Cheers,
Jonathan

the way to handle that is to
1) clean up the current slideshow code
2) add more effects to the slideshow code
3) have it be part of the normal slideshow screensaver
