Chromecast screen saver


Recommended Posts

When casting the screen displayed is too static. There needs to be a screensaver of some kind or it will leave permanent burn marks on my OLED TV screen.

Can't you set the TV itself to move to some kind of screensaver while keeping the audio playing after a set period of time? There aren't many options for the media player to do this that I have seen.

As far as I can see there is no way to do so on my LG TV or on the Nvidia Shield TV. The Nvidia Shield TV will go into screen saver mode if nothing is happening but in the case of casting something is happening while you cast so it will not go into screen saver mode.

 However I have seen other programs that keep moving the cast image on the screen every few seconds in order not to burn the image on the screen.
